Does anyone know when the doors open on Saturday morning? I'm not having any luck finding it on the MLG site.

Awesome, thanks for finding it battyone. You're an online sleuth!

Maybe the OP can update his first post with the time in it so people reading the thread will see it right away.

Did so. Also added a "Player Signings" / "Meet & Greet". (Added TLO's Thursday Night signing at Providence).

If other players / teams post announcements, I will update that list.

I went to the Cheesecake Factory at the Mall once. The food was badly prepared and ridiculously overpriced (considering that it was in fact, not very good food).

I wholeheartedly support OP's recommendation to check out the restaurants on Thayer street. Sushi Express is pretty good, although not great. Generally prices are high but value is much greater than the mall chain restaurants. Providence is also full of bars (both dive and non-dive) that you should not hesitate to patronize.

Byblos Hookah Bar is a must visit if you like middle eastern food and/or smoking hookah.

So hyped for MLG, I always have a good time when I visit Providence

Awesome thread! I live in Warwick and this thread has everything I could think to tell someone visiting providence and more.

For some reason rhode islanders seem to have very strong opinions about their favorite providence pizza joints lol, but personally would recommend Antonio's or Casserta's if you're looking for some good pizza!

If you like Cambodian or Thai food, check out Apsara in the East Side. Some of the absolute best food you will ever have. Also, be sure to check out Thayer Street for food, Antonio's for pizza (on Thayer), and if you are from the West Coast - try some Dunkin Donuts.

Yeah the Amtrak is freaking expensive. But for me it's the easiest way to get from ME to Providence without driving. Nice to see the station is pretty close to the convention center too.

I dont recognize any seafood restaurant here(at least not on Thayer street) but you can find many good sushi restaurants here, such as Sakura or Haruki (NOT Haruki Express)

Try Spice or Sawaddee for Thai food

My friend said that the best Indian food around here is in food court in the Mall lol

Any good Korean food or Chinese Buffets? I have an issue on trips where I just go to Chinese buffets and eat nothing but crab legs for days >.>

You could try Soban on Thayer st or Teriyaki and Korean house or Sura on downtown. I don't know any good Chinese buffet around here though.
