MY New England

Weekends With Yankee Season 2 Launch Party

New Hampshire PBS and Yankee recently hosted an evening in Portsmouth, NH, celebrating season 2 of Weekends with Yankee, a 13-episode documentary series that invites viewers nationwide to explore the best of New England. On hand for the screening and Q&A at the Music Hall Loft were series cohost and Yankee senior food editor Amy Traverso, Yankee deputy editor Ian Aldrich, Weekends with Yankee director Rennik Soholt, and Black Trumpet chef-owner Evan Mallett. Yankee Publishing president Jamie Trowbridge moderated the Q&A, which delved into the process of bringing Yankee ’s insider knowledge to the screen for season 2.

Celebrating the people, destinations, and experiences that make the region and Yankee Magazine so unique.

The Music Hall Loft event was followed by a dinner at the bistro and wine bar Black Trumpet, where chef-owner Evan Mallett, a multiple James Beard Award semifinalist for Best Chef in the Northeast, plated up his globally inspired cuisine. (In season 2 of Weekends with Yankee, cohost Amy Traverso went mushroom foraging with Mallett.)
