It often references and sometimes stars an animated version of Buddy Cianci, our famous convicted Mayor of Providence, who (although corrupt) cleaned up our beloved city. And we love it, because it includes places like McCoy Stadium, where our Pawtucket Red Sox play. You know that Quahog, Rhode Island does not exist.įamily Guy has drawn attention to our small state, so much attention that we are accustomed to the question, “ Is Quahog, Rhode Island a real place?” Although Quahog is fictitious, thanks to Seth McFarlane - Rhode Island School of Design graduate and creator of Family Guy - the show is filled with real Rhode Island references. Some people use the term to only describe the largest of hard-shell clams used for chowder, and others use it to refer to any hard-shell clam. It’s what we call a hard-shell clam in Rhode Island. We make them try the cold, cheese-less “pizza strips,” calzone-like spinach pies, and hot wieners served with “the works.” And they must, of course, have frozen lemonade from Del’s Lemonade, try Autocrat coffee milk, and have at least one Awful Awful, (preferably on Mondays during the two-for-one special) from Newport Creamery. We get excited to bring our non-native friends to restaurants that have clam cakes, Rhode Island-style chowder, steamers, stuffies, and Rhode Island-style calamari. You love sharing Rhode Island’s food and drink culture.
