Off The Beaten Track -
weekends with yankee

In this episode of Weekends with Yankee, we venture out into the wild. Co-host Richard Wiese boards a small boat off Chatham, Massachusetts, accompanied by one of the leading researchers who is tracking a growing number of great white sharks swimming along the Atlantic coast. From there, we head to a remote corner of inland Maine to visit The Lost Kitchen, one of the most sought-after dinner reservations in the country. Then it's off to the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont to fly up and down the mountain biking trails of Burke Mountain, taking in stunning scenery at every turn. Back in her home kitchen, Co-host Amy Traverso creates a delicious graham cracker pie using a recipe shared by The Lost Kitchen owner-chef, Erin French.

About Weekends with Yankee:

WEEKENDS WITH YANKEE is a 13-part travel and lifestyle series named for the long-running publication enjoyed by readers across America for more than 80 years.

With New England among the nation's top tourist destinations, the magazine-style program takes viewers on an insider's exploration of the cities, countryside locales and far-flung places in the quaint and scenic region.

The series is hosted by Richard Wiese, (Born to Explore) , an Emmy Award-winning TV personality, author and explorer who has traveled to all seven continents, participated in two expeditions to Antarctica, and cross-country skied to the North Pole.

Amy Traverso, a senior food editor at Yankee magazine who has appeared on The Martha Stewart Show and the Food Network's Throwdown with Bobby Flay, joins Richard as co-host.

She highlights recipes, local flavors and the sense of community that make up the regions' food and dining scene.

WEEKENDS WITH YANKEE offers an "all-access" behind-the-scenes pass to the unique attractions that define the region, and the hidden New England that only locals know.
