Julian's Description:
Julian's is the kind of restaurant that transcends time and place. It could be tucked away in Berkeley, California, or hidden behind an unmarked door in Greenwich Village, or coveted by a small city like Providence. Luckily, it's the latter. Julian's has loads of charm of the bistro-on-a-budget sort. The exposed brick walls serve as a gallery of local artists' work for sale; the dining room tables are likewise individually handcrafted and decorated (although, alas, not for sale). Co-owner Julian Forgue and chef Mike McHugh change the menu often, listing ten or so selections that are guaranteed to be cooked with fresh products and passion. The daily brunch features eclectic takes on classic eggs Benedict, each so rich and filling that the restaurant offers half-portions as well as the full, split-muffin variety. Entrées typically include an exotically trimmed burger and favorites like chived tempura cod and vegetarian choices like the nightly "tofu scramble." Flavors are bright, and inspiration is drawn from regional cuisines the world over. The menu is small enough that the misses are rare---and even they still exhibit culinary exuberance. Hit or miss, we always look forward to our next meal here. We're guessing that's what Julian's wants, too.
