Culinary tour of downtown New Haven - NEXT WEEKEND!

Yep, you read right...the culinary tour led by Stephen Fries is back! Stephen is a food writer known around the greater New Haven area who leads a four hour culinary tour to nine destinations where you can sip and sample your way through the city. The concept behind the tour is to introduce people to the city and to new cuisines that they wouldn't usually have tried otherwize. The majority of the tour is a surprise to guests, as the itinerary is kept a secret, which is just part of the fun! But what has been revealed is that the tour will explore a range of places from upscale venues to ethnic food finds. Fries says "New Haven is considered to be the restaurant capital of Connecticut, few realize it was the original home of the Culinary Institute of America. Food brings people together. Everyone has a different story about what food was like when they were growing up. It brings back such memories. It gives you goosebumps." If you are interested in going, make your reservation early. The tour is on Saturday, Dec 11th and meets at 10:45am at the top of the Omni Hotel and tickets cost $69.00. Reservations can be obtained from (203) 777-8550.
