January 24, 2018
I will be back with my buddies Alison and Gino Ruggiero at their restaurant Fiorella on Wednesday January 24, 2018 for another event. Last year’s Tasting Rome dinner was so much fun (the gang even had a cake made to celebrate Rome’s 2769th birthday) and I can’t wait to get back to Rochester! This time we will be serving a South Italy-themed menu highlighting the flavors of the southern peninusla. The 4-course prix-fixe menu costs $55 per person. To reserve your place, call 585-434-5705.
