PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE)-Former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski revealed his favorite part of Providence in an interview with ESPN’s Mike Reiss, ahead of his return to New England as a Buccaneer.

When asked what the best part of Providence was, Gronk highlighted Federal Hill, and its great food.

“I used to go to Federal Hill a lot, because they have a lot of great food. I like the homemade Italian food. I would say the best part about it is the homemade pink vodka sauce,” he said.

Gronk also is a big fan of Olneyville New York System’s hot dogs and coffee milk.

“My favorite late-night place to eat, hands down, is [Olneyville] New York System — with the hot dogs and the coffee milk there. … Let me tell you, it’s delicious,” he continued.

Both Gronk and Tom Brady will be back in Foxboro on Sunday night to take on the Patriots.
