While many cultures claim to have been the first to introduce pizza to the world, Naples, Italy, seems to have the most credibility – but Rhode Island has a rendition all its own. Sure Chicago has its deep dish, New Haven its brick oven pizzas (Frank Pepe’s or Sally’s? A war never won), and New York City its iconic hand-tossed dough with a hint of crisp and oozing cheese is hard to beat, but have you heard of the Rhode Island “pizza strip?” Sometimes called “bakery pizza,” the cheese-less strips of chewy bread topped with tomato sauce is practically an Ocean State delicacy.

Rhode Island is home to a lot of firsts, but perhaps Rhode Island’s list of “firsts” runs longest in the culinary space. The country’s first “food truck” was a horse-drawn cart owned by Rhode Islander Walter Scott in 1872. He’s credited with being the founder of the diner, pioneering bringing readily available affordable food to the working class. The business found a permanent address in 1893 at the corner of Dorrance and Washington streets in Providence. That business had been known as Haven Bros since 1893, and the mobile diner remains steps from its original location today.

Other filming locations include North Kingstown, where the set for the interior of the magic shop ..read more
