Mill’s Tavern has named Cara Marie Mourning as its Mill’s Tavern has named Cara Marie Mourning as its new executive chef, bringing a nationally recognized culinary resume and more than 25 years of experience to the acclaimed Providence restaurant. “We are thrilled to welcome Chef Mourning to Mill’s,” said General Manager Lesley Hall. “Her bold style coupled with our shared commitment to excellence promises a unique and exquisite experience for every guest.” Mourning is known for a confident, globally inspired approach that spans classical butchery, plant-based innovation and thoughtful menu development. Her cooking emphasizes seasonal, locally sourced ingredients while accommodating a range of dietary preferences. Guests can expect Mill’s signature elevated steak and seafood offerings to remain, alongside expanded vegan and vegetarian options and reimagined accompaniments. “I am honored to join the incredible team at Mill’s and look forward to contributing to its reputation of culinary excellence,” Mourning said. “I am excited to lend a clear creative vision to our work while developing the next generation of culinary talent.” Before joining Mill’s, Mourning served as executive chef at Blu Violet at the Aloft Hotel in Providence. Her competitive and television credits include Hell’s Kitchen Season 24, three RIVA “Diced” championships, and appearances on Food Network programs Chopped, Beat Bobby Flay, and Beachside Brawl. A native of Naples, Florida, she now resides in Lincoln, Rhode Island. Located at the foot of historic College Hill, Mill’s Tavern is housed in the century-old Pilgrim Mill’s Building and is known for its refined yet inviting atmosphere. The restaurant features a wood-burning oven, an open kitchen, an extensive Wagyu program, and a seafood-forward menu built around regional sourcing. Mill’s also maintains an award-winning wine list and has earned Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence annually since 2014. Mill’s Tavern is located at 101 North Main Street in Providence. #millstavern #providenceri #newportbuzz
A popular trail at Norman Bird Sanctuary is safer A popular trail at Norman Bird Sanctuary is safer and more welcoming after an Eagle Scout service project led by Ethan Hoag of Scouting America Troop 3 Newport. Hoag coordinated volunteers to restore the Shady Glade Bridge, a well-used crossing that had become weathered and unsafe over time. Working with sanctuary staff, he oversaw a full rebuild designed to preserve the site’s natural character while improving safety for hikers. The project replaced aging components with sturdy mahogany supports set on secure footings and added matching railings. The materials were chosen to blend with the surrounding landscape while delivering long-term durability. “This bridge is an important feature along one of the sanctuary’s most traveled paths,” Troop leaders said. The work ensures continued access to the trails and protects visitors as they explore the property. Hoag said the sanctuary’s role in the community guided his choice. “I have wonderful memories of time spent at the bird sanctuary, and they’re such an important part of the community,” he said. “I wanted to do something to benefit them.” Founded in 1947, Troop 3 Newport is part of the Narragansett Council and serves youth ages 11–17 on Aquidneck Island. The troop meets Monday evenings during the school year and maintains an active program of camping, service and advancement. Over more than seven decades, Troop 3 Newport has guided more than 100 Scouts to the rank of Eagle Scout, Scouting’s highest honor, continuing a long tradition of leadership and community service. #middletownri #newportbuzz
Set at the crossroads of Newport’s coastal energy Set at the crossroads of Newport’s coastal energy and Middletown’s prized sense of space, 14 Kay Boulevard is more than a residence — it is a fully reimagined family compound designed for effortless luxury, generous entertaining, and year-round living. Thoughtfully conceived with scale and flexibility in mind, this expansive property offers the rare ability to enjoy Newport’s dining, shopping, and shoreline while retreating to the tranquility of a private enclave. Spanning approximately 6,200 square feet, the home features seven bedrooms and seven-and-a-half baths, allowing ample room for family, guests, and extended stays. The main residence is tailored for modern living, anchored by two spacious living rooms, a private office, and a first-floor bedroom suite ideal for guests or multigenerational living. At the heart of the home, an eat-in chef’s kitchen blends function with refined detail. High-end appliances, a walk-in pantry with beverage refrigerator, and seamless flow into the formal dining area make the space equally suited for everyday living and elevated gatherings. Custom woodwork and coffered ceilings add architectural depth throughout. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with separate vanities, a deep soaking tub, a luxurious walk-in shower, and an oversized walk-in closet — a private sanctuary removed from the pace of daily life. Outdoors, the lifestyle continues with an in-ground pool and spa, creating a private setting for relaxation and entertaining across the seasons. Adding further versatility, a legal apartment above the two-car garage provides ideal accommodations for extended family, guests, or potential income. Perfectly positioned on the Newport–Middletown line, the property offers immediate access to Newport’s celebrated amenities while delivering one of Middletown’s most coveted benefits: the resident beach sticker — your gateway to local sands and surf. 14 Kay Boulevard, Middletown, RI 7 Bedrooms | 7 Full Baths | 1 Half Bath 6,200 Sq. Ft. In-Ground Pool & Spa | Legal Apartment Offered by @newportlivinggroup of @liladelmancompass for $3,995,000
