New England 12: Hemenway's in Providence (RI).

Hemenway's in Providence RI has proved to be a reliable last meal on our New England sojourns before hopping on SouthWest to return to the Mid-Atlantic.  Colette had thin slices of very rare yellowtail tuna atop a nice salad and I had two firsts: a cup of ceviche of scallops and shrimp with a pile of plantain chips on one side and corn chips on the other, both delicious - and someting I've never heard of before - calamari Rhode Island style which turns out to be perfectly deep fried with jalapeno peppers.  The only clunker - a wedge of rock-hard, totally unripe avocado - most bizarre.

Our bill, with a bottle of wine, was $63.72 before tip.
