New England Celebrities
On this episode of Weekends with Yankee, cohost Amy Traverso visits with legendary chef Jacques Pepin at his Connecticut home and helps cook up a couple of his favorite French-New England fusion dishes. Next, we travel to the most climbed mountain in New England, Mount Monadnock, to learn what makes it so special. Then cohost Richard Wiese gets a thrill from custom-built Ducati motorcycles, made in New England and shipped to some of Hollywood's biggest stars. Finally, it's off to Vermont to meet two world-famous craftsmen, Simon and Andrew Pearce, a father-and-son team whose glassblowing and woodturning talents have built an international brand.
