Our team is on break for one more week, but don’t fret, we have a delicious Rhody Radio episode here to keep your podcast feed fed. Back in October, the Rhody Radio team enlisted library workers from around the state to try out all of the restaurants featured in the Rhode Island Food Fights TacoMania competition, and they’ve compiled their reviews into an audio feast to guide your own taco adventures! They also sat down with Jim Nellis, the Founder of Rhode Island Food Fights, to talk about the competition and how it got started. We hope you enjoy this episode, and we’ll be back next week with a brand new episode of Down Time.
