Newport Restaurant Week, November 2 – 11, 2012

written by David Dadekian

Newport Restaurant WeekFrom Discover Newport comes the news of the next Newport Restaurant Week. As has become the tradition in the area, Restaurant Week has grown to over a week, running for ten days beginning Friday, November 2. All the information, including the complete list of participating restaurants can be found in the release below and at GoNewportRestaurantWeek.com.

Celebrate Our Culinary Community Throughout Newport Restaurant Week

Newport Restaurant Week returns November 2-11, 2012 with more than 45 participating restaurants throughout Newport and Bristol Counties, Rhode Island. Now a highly anticipated fall tradition, restaurants dish up extraordinary cuisine at affordable prix fixe prices with ingredients sourced from local farmers, foragers and fisherman. As in years past, the prices remain at $16 for a three-course lunch and $30 for a three-course dinner.*

Newport Restaurant Week has come to be a crowd-pleasing event among local residents and visitors alike since being introduced in 2006. This fall’s 10-day affair will highlight local food purveyors, new seasonal menu items and the talents of creative chefs who orchestrate unforgettable dining experiences. Visiting gourmands can come for dinner and stay for breakfast by taking advantage of reasonably priced Newport Restaurant Week lodging packages while culinary enthusiasts can savor food-related events including cooking classes, Greenvale Vineyards‘ Harvest Festival and the Taste of Newport—a savory extravaganza benefiting Child & Family, the largest and most comprehensive social service provider in Newport County. Information on packages and the growing list of events can be found at GoNewportRestaurantWeek.com.

Updates on events, participating restaurants and menus can be found via our social networks, including Newport Restaurant Week’s Facebook page and on Discover Newport’s Twitter feed (use hashtag #nptrw). Also, diners from Providence and around the state can rely on Rhode Island Public Transit Authority (RIPTA) bus routes for $4 per round trip ticket or $6 for an all-day pass to save money on parking and gas.

Participating restaurants span both counties, reaffirming the destination’s identity as a premier culinary destination. Chefs from Brick Alley Pub (Newport), Hourglass Brasserie (Bristol), Jamestown Fish (Jamestown), Scampi (Portsmouth), and Windward at the Hyatt Regency (Newport) will appear on The Rhode Show on WPRI TV 12 in advance of and during Newport Restaurant Week, each cooking up a dish that will be featured on their prix fixe menus.

For the first time ever, Newport Restaurant Week will be sponsored in part by OpenTable.com; a free, real-time online restaurant reservation program. Participating OpenTable restaurants have a reservation button on their individual listing on the GoNewportRestaurantWeek.com web site (along with their Restaurant Week menus) so that users can conveniently book a time to dine directly from the site. Additional sponsors include Absolut Vodka, American Express, Brancott Wines, the East Bay Chamber of Commerce, the Newport County Chamber of Commerce, Samuel Adams and Yelp.com.

To view an up-to-date listing of participating restaurants, menus, lodging packages and events, visit GoNewportRestaurantWeek.com.

*Prices are for prix-fixe menus only. Tax, beverage and gratuity not included. Other restrictions may apply.

Newport Restaurant Week, March 23 – April 1, 2012

written by David Dadekian

Newport Restaurant WeekFrom the Newport & Bristol County Convention & Visitors Bureau comes the news of the next Newport Restaurant Week. As has become the tradition in the area, Restaurant Week has grown to over a week, running for ten days beginning Friday, March 23. All the information, including the complete list of participating restaurants can be found in the release below and at http://www.gonewportrestaurantweek.com/.

 

Newport Restaurant Week: 10 Days of Fabulous, Affordable Food

Eat, drink and be merry at more than 40 restaurants throughout Newport and Bristol County without breaking the bank this spring! The Newport and Bristol County Convention and Visitors Bureau (NBCCVB) is delighted to announce the return of Newport Restaurant Week March 23-April 1, 2012 with the same budget-friendly, prix-fixe offerings as in years past: three-course lunches for just $16, and three-course dinners for just $30.

“The culinary talent throughout the nine towns of Newport and Bristol County is simply remarkable,” said Evan Smith, NBCCVB President & CEO. “With so many local farms, and of course, being located on Narragansett Bay, the fresh and creative dishes at our restaurants have landed them in the national media spotlight. Newport Restaurant Week gives residents and visitors alike a chance to discover new and wonderful places.”

Additional happenings throughout the 10-day event includes food and wine pairings, a Samuel Adams beer dinner, cooking classes, tastings, chef-led culinary tours and more. Gourmands can take advantage of culinary lodging packages as well.

Many of our talented chefs will be showcasing their Newport Restaurant Week menus as they slice, dice, simmer and sauté on the Culinary Stage at The Home Show at the Rhode Island Convention Center March 30- April 1, 2012. Newport Restaurant Week chefs will also show off their skills on The Rhode Show on WPRI Channel 12.

Newport Restaurant Week was established in 2006 as an annual event to encourage both local residents and visitors to Newport and Bristol County to experience the vast culinary talent in our destination at an affordable price and to stimulate local business not only at restaurants but at retailers and lodging partners as well. In 2008, Newport Restaurant Week expanded to a bi-annual event; one taking place in early spring and the other in late fall. Restaurateurs often create menus that celebrate seasonal ingredients and promote local food and wine purveyors. Many offer vegetarian and gluten-free alternatives to patrons with food allergies or specialty dietary requirements. Newport Restaurant Week is proudly sponsored by Sam Adams, Jameson Irish Whiskey, Kahlua, Brancott Wines, the RI Turnpike & Bridge Authority and the Newport/Bristol CVB.

For a complete listing of Restaurant Week events and to view menus, visit GoNewportRestaurantWeek.com. Also, we’ll be releasing up-to-the-minute Restaurant Week news on our social networks. Please fan and follow the NBCCVB on Facebook (facebook.com/NewportRhodeIsland) and Twitter (twitter.com/NewportRICVB) today.
