Former New England Patriot -- and now Tampa Bay Buccaneer -- Rob Gronkowski said the "best part of Providence" is some of its most famous food. 

Gronkowski made the comments to ESPN Magazine this week, as Gronk -- and former Patriot MVP Tom Brady -- return to Foxboro with the Bucs this Sunday night to take on New England.

"Ahead of return, Bucs' Rob Gronkowski reveals what he misses about New England," wrote Mike Reiss for ESPN. 

"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. That was always my favorite," said Gronk. 

And 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 added.
