The last weekend of summer was glorious in Newport, RI, with warm sunshine, cool breezes off the ocean, and as much great wine and food as anyone can realistically handle in four days. This was the 2019 Newport Mansions Wine & Food Festival, and it was, as usual, spectacular. If anything the wine was even Continue reading Quick Recap of the 2019 Newport Mansions Wine & Food Festival https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-captain-daniel-packer-inne-in-mystic-ct/ 
We were recently in Mystic, CT, passing through on our way to a wedding. Mystic is a quaint little town, with some very good shopping, a bustling town center, an old drawbridge that just might trap you on one side or the other, as well as the Mystic Aquarium. There is a lot to do Continue reading Dining Review: Captain Daniel Packer Inne in Mystic, CT https://www.redwineplease.com/restaurant-review-matadora-a-bit-of-spain-in-woburn-massachusetts/ 
On a recent business trip I found myself dining at Matadora, inside the Hilton Boston/Woburn Hotel in Woburn, MA. This is a Spanish Tapas restaurant with a comfortable, open and modern vibe. The night I was there a solo performer playing guitar and singing Spanish songs added to the authentic atmosphere. The restaurant is located Continue reading Restaurant Review – Matadora: A Bit of Spain in Woburn, Massachusetts https://www.redwineplease.com/jamestown-fish-top-100-best-wine-restaurant/ 
We love Jamestown Fish. As the name implies, it is a restaurant on the island of Jamestown, in Rhode Island, and it specializes in Fish. Actually, more like seafood in general, but the name is very descriptive none the less. This is a great place for lunch in the summer, a late afternoon bite or Continue reading Jamestown Fish! – Top 100 Best Wine Restaurant! https://www.redwineplease.com/restaurant-reviews-in-and-around-chatham-ma-february-2018/ 
On a recent getaway to Cape Cod, one of our traditional stomping grounds, we went to a few restaurants in and around Chatham, Massachusetts.

Sometimes in life you look back on something and wonder, “why did it take us so long to do this?” It could be a simple thing around the house, a minor, inexpensive thing that makes life easier, or a place you’ve always meant to go but just didn’t seem to get to. Here we’ll cross Continue reading Dining Review – Basta on Broad in Cranston, RI https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-cucina-rustica-in-cranston-ri/ 
We haven’t done a dining review in a while. That’s a little unusual, as we haven’t stopped eating. It’s just that there has been so much wine to talk about. So let’s take a little time and catch up on a restaurant review or two. We’ll start with Cucina Rustica on Atwood Avenue in Cranston, Continue reading Dining Review – Cucina Rustica in Cranston, RI https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-baba-sushi-hot-pot-in-sturbridge-ma/ 
A really good sushi restaurant is hard to find. In Worcester, MA, Baba Sushi has gained a reputation for being just that. We’re not in Worcester very often, but we are frequently in Sturbridge, MA, and it so happens that Baba Sushi opened a second location in this quaint town. This could turn out to Continue reading Dining Review – Baba Sushi & Hot Pot in Sturbridge, MA https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-tavolo-in-smithfield-rhode-island/ 
Last week we stopped in at Tavolo Wine Bar & Tuscan Grill in Smithfield, RI. We were armed with a groupon, hungry and thirsty, and completely unaware of what to expect. Surprise can be good and bad. Let’s see which way this one went. The restaurant is in a rather interesting spot with multiple buildings Continue reading Dining Review: Tavolo in Smithfield, Rhode Island https://www.redwineplease.com/dining-review-chardonnays-in-seekonk-ma/ 
We were looking for a restaurant somewhere between Providence, RI and New Bedford, MA recently to meet family. After a brief internet search it appeared that Chardonnay’s would be a good choice, at least based on the online reviews we read. The menu looked pretty amazing, and the wine list was also impressive. They have Continue reading Dining Review – Chardonnay’s in Seekonk, MA |
