You've seen the Emmy-award winning PBS show; now you can experience "A Chef's Life" firsthand with this getaway package to Kinston, which includes dinner at the world renowned Chef & the Farmer restaurant and a night's stay at The O'Neil, Kinston's luxury boutique hotel. Slip away from the hustle and bustle of the Triangle for a relaxing night in this seven-room hotel in a building originally built as a bank in 1924.  (The bank vault, complete with 16 ton vault door, is still intact!)  Then stroll down the street to the Chef & the Farmer to sample their creative, locavore New American fare.  Make your reservations EARLY; your Chef & the Farmer $100 gift card may also be used at the Boiler Room, their sister restaurant.  Take a tour of Kinston's Mother Earth Brewing where they craft beer with artisanal devotion, and your eastern North Carolina jaunt will be complete.
