About Worcester Foodies

Created as a microsite to WorcesterScene.com, Worcester Foodies serves two goals: help Worcesterite's break their routine of going to the same restaurant time after time, and to support and promote Worcester restaurants.

There are hundreds of restaurants in the city, but only a handful have a marketing and advertising budget. Because of this, there are many hidden gems that often go unnoticed. Worcester Foodies goes to a different Worcester restaurant each month, randomly chosen by someone in the group. Often group members try to find restaurants that others haven't been to. By going to the restaurant, and everyone writing a review of a different meal, we are generating publicity for the restaurant, not only with ourselves or our social networks, but with the entire WorcesterScene.com community (each article is published both on worcester foodies and WorcesterScene.com). In addition to supporting the restaurants with a marketing edge, our group is about 20-members strong. We meet the first Tuesday of each month (typically the slowest day for a restaurant) and buy our meals, giving financial support to the restaurant.

Food is "hot"; look at 90% of the programs on network TV, they are either about cooking, about eating, or about losing weight. The problem with the media, however, is that it's nationwide and presented by professionals. Worcester Foodies is Worcester focused and the members come from non-food industries—business owners, lawyers, designers, people in finance, and people in marketing. Because of the diverse backgrounds, each review is written in an easy to read, easy to understand, manner that is truly appreciated by our readers—let's face it, most people love food, but aren't foodies!

Worcester Foodies is not currently accepting new members. To be placed on the waiting list, please contact us directly.
