Best of Rhode Island 2010 Editors' Picks

An oh-so-fitting sister shop to the Newport Wine Cellar, the cheese-heavy Le Petit Gourmet stocks plenty of cocktail party worthy staples. In addition to regional and imported cheeses, they've got a well-edited selection of charcuterie, good olive oils and vinegars, crackers, dried pasta, mustards and spreads. Look for their weekly perfect pair special, which marries an always-different wedge of cheese with a bottle from next door, at a 15 percent discount.
