The Red Bank Flavour Food and Wine Walks will return to Red Bank, New Jersey beginning in July. The monthly culinary tours allow participants to purchase a wristband and visit over 20 participating restaurants, bars, and shops to sample food and wine from 2-6pm on the third Sunday of each month from June through October. Tickets can be purchased at several locations for $35 each. The walks aim to showcase the culinary and beverage offerings of the borough while supporting local businesses.
Here is a brief overview of how we work with small local businesses to enhance their marketing approach and reach foreign visitors through original content and photography.
