I am grateful for the taste of Sicilia's stuffed crust pizza. Sicilia's is a restaurant in the Federal Hill (Little Italy) section of Providence, RI. The first time I visited this restaurant was a couple months into my first semester of college, with my new college roommate Judy (who would continue to be my roommate through all 4 years of college and will continue to be a lifelong close friend, and who I am *extremely* grateful for, much more so than this pizza). We had attended a concert downtown and were looking for some late night comfort food, and this place fit the bill. The stuffed crust pies are ridiculous even by pizza standards - there's a solid inch of baked cheese underneath the tomato sauce, which tops a thick, buttery crust - but in college, you can get away with eating that kind of food and not feeling like you're going to die afterwards. Sicilia's turned into a regular Friday night tradition (also with our good friend Claire, and sometimes others), one of our favorite getaways if we wanted a couple hours away from campus. We had a favorite waitress who knew our regular order. I am grateful for the pizza, the friendships of Judy and Claire, and the many good memories at Sicilia's.
