Husband-and-wife team Nick and Tracy Rabar (who also happen to live down the street) have created a neighborhood catch-all for nights when no one feels like cooking. Their menu hits all the major food groups, with salads for a post-work-out bite adn corn dogs and mac-and-cheese for the kids. Entrées: from $19. Rumford Center, 20 Newman Ave. 401-270-2836; avenuenamericankitchen.com
