Out of all the restaurants in the emporium, after my experience at International Pocket, or I-Pocket, it seems to be one of the most unique among them. It has an interesting Mediterranean theme, and it’s pretty apparent throughout. I-Pocket serves Greek or Mediterranean-style food, and there is absolutely a commitment to theme, from the music…
Up until the beginning of my college career, my days consisted of studying for heavily one-sided religion courses, worrying about whether my plaid, pleated skirt would land me a detention, and getting psyched about the fact that we were missing second period for a school-wide mass. This is because, for 8 years, I had been…
Halloween is my favorite holiday because it’s the one time of year you can dress up and pretend to be someone else – or if you’re crazy like me, dress up seven days in a row. I may be delusional, but I thought it would be a good laugh if I created seven different costumes…
Do you ever have that feeling of pure disappointment when a teacher hands back a test and you get a considerably low grade? We’ve all been there. Grades have always been important to me, not only because my mom is a teacher and she’d rip up any grade I went home with below a B-,…
Everyone knows it, and at this point, it goes without saying: college students love pizza. So, I wanted to finally find out just how good the pizza is right at the top of campus at International Pizza and Wings, affectionately referred to as I-Slice. I-Slice is definitely a no-frills kind of place. There’s a front…
I’ve been a vegetarian for almost a year now, and I don’t regret my decision because I still get to enjoy cheese. Many people think cutting meat out of your diet is the most difficult thing in the world, but I think you have to try it for yourself to find out. From my point…
“It’s just words, folks,” Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump said last Sunday in response to the hot mic comments he made about women in 2005. Before I go on, let me just remind you exactly what those “words” are. “I’m automatically attracted to beautiful [women]—I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss….
Contrary to what most students think, the Emporium is more than just a place to order calzones from late at night. In reality, at restaurants like Albie’s, you can escape from eating lunch at the dining hall with solid food at a decent price. Albies’ storefront is traditional looking. I would describe it as archetypal…
We live in a world where you can order Chipotle through a mobile app. So naturally, finding a person to go out with is also that convenient. If you asked me a year ago how many online dating profiles I had, I would have been unashamed to tell you I had tried everything–OkCupid, Tinder, 3nder,…
The Kingston Emporium, just on the edge of the University of Rhode Island’s campus, has a new offering in its lineup of quick service and casual dining: the Krazy Fusion Cafe. On first glance, the small location immediately gives the impression of a down-to-earth, family-run small business. The large sign on the storefront is an…
