We just spent a delightful 2 hours touring 5 Providence restaurants with the Newport Gourmet tour. Led by Michael, the owner, we went into the kitchens, watched food prep and best of all sampled dishes and drank some great alcoholic beverages. The highlight was helping Bob the owner of Pot au Feu prepare crepes. We also went to Beer and... More

My wife and I found the 2-hour restaurant and tasting tour to be very worthwhile and a refreshingly unique way to see Newport. It included 6 restaurants and food sampling ranging from a lobster risotto dish to pate, spicy cucumber margaritas and local rum, sloppy joes and homemade ice cream and cupcakes. All sites were within a few block scenic... More

I grew up in Rhode Island but I haven't lived there for over a decade. My family still lives there and as a result, my fiancé and I find ourselves in Rhode Island every so often. I love to introduce her to some of the great things that the 'biggest little state in the union' has to offer and Newport... More
