She maintains a photography studio in Warren but spends most of her time on location , shooting in the kitchens and dining rooms of New England ’ s chefs and in the gardens and boats of the working people who supply the ingredients on their menus .
Contributing writer and former Rhode Island Monthly copy editor Grace Kelly is a sucker for a good bloody mary , and she says the one at Hunky Dory in Warren , with its crunchy , lacto-fermented dilly beans and hit of horseradish , was one of the best she ’ s ever had [“ Best Brunches ”].
