Courtesy of Central Provisions CENTRAL PROVISIONS An always-packed restaurant/bar in a 19th-century former storehouse in the Old Port neighborhood, Central Provisions brings small-plate dining to delicious new levels. Our best advice is to order a few plates at a time, retain a menu on the table, and keep going until you canât eat another bite. Also, donât arrive too hungry. Central Provisions doesnât accept reservations and waits can be long, but are well worth it.

Here youâll find excellent renditions of panini, salads, charcuterie, soup, and milkshakes, but youâre really there for the Belgian-style frites that are fried in the flavorful fat that give the restaurant its name.
