News Bites: Pane e Vino Owners to Open Massimo / Social Enterprise Greenhouse Food Accelerator / “Savoring Italy” Tour

by David Dadekian February 2, 2016
written by David Dadekian

Current news releases—Eat Drink RI is not the source for these items—please follow any links for more information.

Joe & Esther Dequattro, Owners Of Pane E Vino On Federal Hill, Set To Open New Restaurant Massimo In Former Mediterraneo Space

Massimo

Joseph and Esther Dequattro, owners of Pane e Vino Ristorante & Enoteca, are pleased to introduce their new restaurant, Massimo, set to open in spring 2016 in the space formerly known as Mediterraneo.

“Pane e Vino offers very traditional, authentic Southern Italian cuisine, founded on my family recipes,” said Joseph DeQuattro, “Creating this new menu has given me the opportunity to experiment with some contemporary and innovative concepts, with influences from all over Italy.”

“Joe and I created Massimo with the goal of providing our guests with a unique dining experience, where great food and attentive service are fun and accessible,” said Esther DeQuattro.

Joe and Esther have engaged acclaimed restaurant designer, Kyla Coburn, to execute their vision for the space. The 200-seat restaurant is being completely renovated, and will offer an extraordinary space for private events. Massimo will feature inspired and locally sourced small plates and entrees, a seasonally curated cocktail menu, and an international wine list. Many of the wines will be sourced directly from small boutique winemakers across Italy.

Massimo will be open for lunch and dinner daily, as well as Sunday Brunch. Pane e Vino will remain open as the beloved classic Italian restaurant, anchoring the western end of Atwells Avenue. For updates and more information about Massimo’s opening date, please visit www.facebook.com/MassimoProvidence.


Social Enterprise Greenhouse Drives Innovation in Food Cluster with Launch of First Food Accelerator on February 9th

Twelve high-impact New England-based do well, do good food entrepreneurs selected from a pool of 28 applicants will embark on a 3-month business development journey to bring their ventures to the next level.

Social Enterprise Greenhouse

The Social Enterprise Greenhouse (SEG) will launch its first Food Accelerator cohort with a celebration on February 9, 2016 at the SEG Hub (10 Davol Square, Suite 100, Providence) from 6:00pm-8:00pm. The 12 New England-based food businesses selected for the program will introduce their ventures and goals, as well as provide tastings of their products. This event is an opportunity to celebrate the commencement of the 12-week program with the SEG and local food communities. The Food Accelerator, delivered in partnership with Brown University and funded by the Henry P. Kendall Foundation, provides high potential entrepreneurs with the knowledge, networks and resources they need to take their venture to the next level. This event is free and open to the public.

Although SEG continues to provide support and resources to social enterprises across industry, this new industry-specific cluster approach enables SEG and strategic partners to better provide resources and support to ventures that can respond to challenges in these specific sectors and ultimately help boost economic development in Rhode Island.

The Food Accelerator is SEG’s first industry-specific program, offering a 12-week blended learning model that provides high impact New England-based food entrepreneurs with the knowledge, networks, and resources they need to accelerate the growth of their enterprises. The program is made possible by a network of 200+ coaches and advisors, many of whom are among Rhode Island’s top business and food community leaders. Additional value is provided by 1-on-1 intensive coaching, a peer cohort model, and access to SEG’s recently opened coworking space at 10 Davol Square in Providence. Upon graduation, participants will receive priority access to the SEG loan fund that provides below market interest rate loans to high potential social enterprises.

The purpose of this new program is to stimulate innovation in Rhode Island’s burgeoning food sector and to help create more successful, sustainable do well, do good businesses in Rhode Island and the region, leading to a more extensive and healthy local and regional food system.

“Rhode Island’s food economy is strong and getting stronger,” said Congressman Jim Langevin. “Social Enterprise Greenhouse is doing phenomenal work supporting start-up businesses, including those in the food industry. This Food Accelerator will no doubt further grow our vibrant food economy, and I can’t wait to see what this class of participants achieves with the help of the hardworking team at SEG.”

“Our final 12 ventures are passionate, socially-driven, and dedicated to making an impact on RI’s food system. Thanks to the support from the Henry P. Kendall Foundation and our Food Advisory Council, we have formulated a program that will give these ventures the tools they need to thrive in RI and beyond,” Isabella Cassell, Director of Food Initiatives, SEG

This year’s Food Accelerator program will conclude with a graduation and final pitch event on May 10, 2016.

Local Business Women Combine Connections and Expertise to Offer Food & Wine Lovers an Exclusive, Behind-the-Scenes Tuscany Trip

Past “Savoring Italy” Tour, photos by David Dadekian

For the fourth consecutive year, Jessica Granatiero, proprietor of The Savory Grape and The Savory Affair, along with Chef Kaitlyn Roberts, founder & owner of Easy Entertaining Inc., have created a luxury Italian excursion that gives visitors a personalized food and wine tour of the beautiful region of Tuscany. This epicurean duo created the itinerary of the “Savoring Italy” tour by tapping into their extensive knowledge of the Italian food and wine culture, as well as their personal relationships with vintners and chefs in Tuscany to bring guests a tour unrivaled by other travel experts.

“Our experience is different. It’s a real glimpse into the Italian culture of food and wine. Savoring Italy is an emersion experience,” said Granatiero. “Our guests are welcomed by some of the best vineyards in Tuscany, while also learning authentic hands-on culinary techniques of Italian cooking.”

The Savoring Italy tour is scheduled for October 16th through October 22nd, 2016. Guests will stay at Villa Daniella Grossi, a restored 17th century luxury villa located in the hills of Lucca and learn about life of Italian wine and food by visiting four exclusive Tuscan vineyards guided by Granatiero. Chef Roberts teaches how to prepare authentic Italian cuisine with hands-on cooking classes featuring homemade pasta and pizza.

The sellout success of the past years’ Savoring Italy tours prompted Roberts and Granatiero to team up once again. “While Jessica and I do this for a living, it is hard to call this work,” said Roberts. “We have such an amazing time each year reconnecting with our Italian colleagues, experimenting with unique recipes, sipping new wine varietals, and exploring different areas of this extraordinary country!”

Roberts completed her culinary training in Tuscany, speaks fluent Italian and returns frequently to lead educated tours in hands-on, one-of-a-kind experiences. Granatiero has been recognized by the Wall Street Journal, Wine Spectator, Providence Business News and RI Monthly. She also leads the event-planning firm, The Savory Affair, specializing in wine-themed local, national and international travel.

A minimum of twelve guests are required by April 1st to confirm the trip. To reserve your spots please call Jessica Granatiero of The Savory Affair at 401-261-4966 or e-mail her at [email protected].

News Bites: Bakes for Breast Cancer October Bake Sale, Langevin Continues Focus on Food Economy, George’s of Galilee Fall Seafood Specials

by David Dadekian September 23, 2014
written by David Dadekian

Bakes for Breast Cancer, Inc.Current news releases—Eat Drink RI is not the source for these items—please follow any links for more information.

Bakes for Breast Cancer Holds First Annual “Office Bake Sale”

Boston non-profit raises funds during Breast Cancer Awareness month one sweet at a time

Bakes for Breast Cancer, Inc., a regional non-profit organization dedicated to raising funds for breast cancer research and care, is launching its first month-long “Office Bake Sale” campaign on October 1, 2014. Participants simply bring baked goods or sweet treats to work and sell them in their office during the month of October, also known as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

“By selling just a few cookies or cupcakes in your office, whether homemade or purchased, to your work mates and colleagues, you’ll be contributing to the cause, one sweet at a time,” said Carol Sneider, founder and President of Bakes for Breast Cancer. “Even if you have no time to bake, you can participate virtually by sharing a photo of your favorite dessert and making a donation to Bakes for Breast Cancer.”

Participants log on to www.bakesforbreastcancer.org, download the office calendar to place in the office kitchen or break room. Work mates select a day on the calendar to bring in a baked good and place a donation jar next to the baked treats. Then the participating office can take a group “selfie” and post it on their Facebook page with “#officebakesale” and challenge friends to participate during the month of October.

Since its founding in 1999, with its annual dessert campaign Boston Bakes for Breast Cancer, Bakes for Breast Cancer has been dedicated to the eradication of breast cancer. “Through partnerships with restaurants, bakeries & shops, we have raised almost $1,000,000 for breast cancer research and care. Today, we strive to expand upon our success and continue our influence by enlisting individuals and other organizations in our fight against breast cancer,” Sneider added. “By simply purchasing a dessert at one of our events you can help make a difference. Over time, these sweets continue to make a real impact and significant contributions to finding a cure.”

Breast Cancer affects one in eight women, some with a family history of breast cancer and some without one, women of all ages get breast cancer as do men. Last year over 230,000 women were diagnosed with breast cancer and almost 40,000 of those women died from this very indiscriminate disease.

With each of us as a separate ingredient, we can help raise funds to defeat breast cancer, as well as support our loved ones who have been affected by breast cancer. Please, join us in our baking. One sweet at a time, we can make a difference.

Langevin Continues Focus on Food Economy with RI Food Week Follow-Up Tour

RI Food Week II Highlights Role of Agriculture in Strong Food Economy

Following up on his February RI Food Week tour, Congressman Jim Langevin (D-RI) will continue to meet with food-related business owners next week to discuss the opportunities and challenges facing Rhode Island’s food economy. This round of visits will focus on agriculture and the beverage industry, in particular.

“Tourism and hospitality are central to the overall Rhode Island economy, and our food-related businesses – from five-star restaurants to bountiful farmlands – play a major role in strengthening and further developing our state’s reputation as a world-class destination,” Langevin said. “I learned so much during my RI Food Week, and I look forward to this exciting follow-up that will highlight some of the other excellent food businesses in our state.”

Langevin believes that improving the state’s economic climate and supporting business growth is best achieved through public-private partnerships and collaboration between government, consumers and the business community. He regularly visits businesses to speak with owners about what’s working and what isn’t when it comes to doing business in Rhode Island, soliciting their ideas on how to make the state an even better place to live and work. In addition to the original RI Food Week, he launched his RI in Business (#RIinBiz) tour in August and met with 15 different businesses, including five restaurants, to discuss strategies for a more robust economy.
