Overview of Eating New England: A Food Lover's Guide to Eating Locally

New England food traditions go deeper than clambakes and baked bean suppers: today the region is a major source of organically grown farm produce and specialty foods. Juliette and Barbara Rogers uncover the best traditional, ethnic, and gourmet specialties in the six New England states.

Pick heirloom apples in Vermont, pumpkins in New Hampshire, and blueberries in Maine

Visit cider mills and microbreweries

Sample fresh maple syrup

Discover the best clam shacks on Narragansett Bay

Find rare Portuguese mountain cheeses in Providence

Catch the herring run on Cape Cod

Taste fresh farmstead goat cheese

Both a where-to guide and as a book on food and eating

Includes the whole spectrum of up-market and down-market items

Divided geographically and cross-referenced by product, Eating New England showcases the highest quality, no matter how obscure the location. The authors emphasize not just finding a particular ingredient or product, but putting it in context by showing travelers where to learn about its history, and where to see it being made.
