#356 - The Story of Eat Drink RI

Get your feedbag on for this one! Chuck tells me about the New England Craft Wine, Beer, and Food Fest he went to last weekend. We discuss the recent RI Food Fights Spectacular Cookie Smackdown and our experiences as judges. After that, we are joined by Dave Dadekian and Katie Kleyla of Eat Drink RI. We talk about the amazing food options in the area, the amazing food events they are putting on in the near future, and amazing local high school mascots. We get into their food/event planning background and talk about how their company came about. If you listen to this, I guarantee you will not eat a gas station rib sandwich for lunch at work tomorrow. (Or you will and feel VERY guilty about it).

Episode 341: RI Red Food Tours and Gibby the Thanksgiving Goblin

We are joined this week by Gina Mastrostefano! Woo! Gina and Chuck recently went on a food tour of Downtown Providence, courtesy of Rhode Island Red Food Tours. Chuck and Gina tell me about the seven different places they got food and their impressions of the tour, the restaurants, and the meals. Sounds like a pretty good time or gift idea! After that, I bring up a message from a friend about how my sense of humor affects potential dates and we discuss that for a while. Finally, Chuck provides the backstory the world has been clamoring for - a brand new picture-perfect mascot for Thanksgiving; who or what is Gibby the Thanksgiving Goblin?
