Trace and Trust with the Newport Restaurant Group’s Waterman Grille and The Mooring Seafood Kitchen & Bar

CNN’s Jim Morelli takes a look Trace and Trust, a Rhode Island-based company that aids in the connection between fishermen and chefs. Included in the video segment are interviews with The Mooring Seafood Kitchen & Bar‘s Executive Chef Bob Bankert, Michael Clayton of Trace and Trust, Waterman Grille‘s Executive Chef Kevin DiLibero and Sam Brown and Chris Brown from Wild Rhody.

The Two Pauls

ANOTHER RESTAURANT FOR PAUL SHIRE

Paul Shire and business partner Paul Roidoulis, who opened The ROI earlier this year, will open a second restaurant to be called The Two Pauls at 315 Waterman Avenue in East Providence. For many years, that was the site of Joseph’s Family Restaurant and most recently Vine Yard East. The space is undergoing major reconstruction with the goal being a casual neighborhood restaurant “where everyone knows your name,” according to Shire. The menu will offer very good basic food including fish and chips and chicken pot pie. The new restaurant will be open for lunch and dinner, serving comfort food such as macaroni and cheese, meatloaf, and burgers as well as prime rib. Shire is promising his fans that The Two Pauls will offer great value, big portions, quick service for those on a schedule, and affordable wines at $5 a glass. The plan is to open in early to mid-October.
