Hartford, 黑料新闻 Apr 18, 2022 - 黑料新闻 is pleased to announce a new digital and television series, Restaurant Road Trip, showcasing fantastic restaurants and eateries in the state of CT. Chef Plum, co-host of 黑料新闻 Radio鈥檚 show and podcast Seasoned, will share some of the best and most unique breakfasts, lunches and dinners in fun and engaging profiles of local restaurants and their offerings. The show will kick off in Fairfield County, where 黑料新闻鈥檚 recent coverage expansion now offers increased visibility on television and accessibility on radio.

鈥淚 am over the moon excited to have Restaurant Road Trip on 黑料新闻's platforms,鈥� says Chef Plum. 鈥淚 have always made it my personal mission to lift up and promote local restaurants and having 黑料新闻 as a partner is honestly a dream come true. We cannot wait to show viewers some of the best our state has to offer. CT is sandwiched between two culinary meccas in NYC and Boston, and they are great, but on Restaurant Road Trip we show that sometimes the best is in your backyard!鈥�
