Delicacies from New England
Delicacies from New England Weekends with Yankee
Richard meets Rhode Island’s Perry Raso, owner of Matunuck Oyster Farm and Bar and a pioneer in the shellfish aquaculture movement. In Jackson, NH, Amy stops in at the Thompson House Eatery and joins owners Kate and Jeff Fournier in cooking Jeff’s signature watermelon “steak.” In Maine, we pay a visit to the team at Wiggly Bridge Distillery in York to learn all about their small-batch spirits.
