Entertaining Newport Style: Preservation Society of Newport County

Additional Details

Description: Over the centuries, new foods and exotic spices have revolutionized society and cultural life. Our desire to gather together -- to eat, drink, and converse -- has produced a rich artistic legacy of architecture, interiors, furniture, ceramics, silver, and textiles ... all devoted to the art of dining. 

Nowhere is that legacy more evident than in Newport, Rhode Island where entertaining was the centerpiece of summer social life in the Victorian and Gilded Ages. In this cookbook, we've collected recipes from Newport residents, noted local chefs, and caterers that convey the essence of the Newport experience -- sophisticated, elegant, yet casual -- updated for today's contemporary lifestyle. 

Savor the flavors and the ambiance of Newport, Rhode Island as you create your own cherished memories with family and friends. Whether it's a lavish party, a weekend brunch, a children's picnic, or an intimate dinner, you'll find recipes for every occasion and every taste.
