Culinary Arts Museum At Johnson & Wales University

A visit to the Johnson & Wales Culinary Arts Museum in Providence will excite your senses and pique your appetite for art and artifacts about food service and cookery. The 4000-square-foot diner exhibit includes original neon signs and an actual 1926 15-stool diner, the Ever Ready, which last operated in Providence. The Little Chef Diner is a play area for kids. Step inside the taproom of an 1833 stagecoach tavern, originally in Stoddard, NH, or sidle up to a 1927 Art Deco bar. “Dinner at the White House” includes the menu from Abraham Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Ball. Travel through time by tracing the history of American cooking through devices like the rapid fireless cooker to an early Raytheon Radarange. Experience the edible art of food presentation: wedding cakes, chocolate and sugar sculpture, and decorative bread showpieces made by students in the Baking and Pastry Arts program at Johnson & Wales.
