We made it to Newport, Rhode Island by mid-day and checked into our hotel earlier than I thought they would let us.
That gave us lots of time to walk the downtown area.
While my breakfast was huge and I thought I would never eat again today…we stopped at a restaurant named The Red Parrot and proceeded to indulge in the best seafood I have had in very many years.
I think I have to make a bold statement here.
You can ONLY get great seafood in New England.
It was excellent. I cheated though; I didn’t want to have only one thing, so I ordered the crab cakes appetizer and a humongous bowl of clam chowder.
It’s been at least 15 years since I was up here, so you know I a had a lot of time to make up for!
Here are the shots and I think just by looking, the taste comes smashing through! Chuck had seafood alfredo (shrimps, scallops and crabmeat) it was divine.
I think the crab claw in the middle give the whole dish a very special touch
The seafood alfredo had just the right blend of cream and cheese
Ah...clam chowder. This was worth the trip from anywhere!
Here is a shot of the restaurant, very hard to miss and right in the center of the harber area.
