Oh, What a Beautiful day for a Culinary Walking Tour

On Saturday, June 4, the weather could not have been better for Worth Tasting, The Culinary Walking Tour of New Haven. What better place to start the tour than at the top of the Omni, where guests got a spectacular view of the historic city and Yale. For those who are interested in the next tour, it is Saturday, July 9. For rservations, please call 203-777-8550 or 203-415-3519.

 

Sylvia and the cheese mongers at Caseus had the group sample Haloumi, a grilling cheese and a locally made cheddar cheese.

Enjoying dumplings at York Noodle

That mashed potato and Bacon Pizza with the brews from BAR hit the spot!

Wine Tasting with Noah from The Wine Thief

What great coffee at Willoughby’s….Gracie sure knows her java!

Jean Pierre from Union League Cafe prepared a dessert sampling paired with dessert wine that was a sweet ending to the tour.

Couldn’t resist tempting you to come on the next tour!
