Can’t afford a trip to Italy this summer?  Non c’è da preoccuparsi (not to worry)!  Through Sunday, July 31st, you can easily taste the regions of Italy simply by visiting some of Arizona’s top Italian restaurants in the celebration of the 150th birthday of the Italian nation.

Recently added to the tour are Marcellino Ristorante, Tiramisu Ristorante, and La Piazza al Forno. Special pricing on a three-to-four course prix-fixe meal at each of the 20 participating restaurants ranges from $20 to $50 per person. Wine and other beverages may be included in the price.

Italy consists of 20 regions, each producing its own culinary treasures. Each restaurant on the Culinary Tour will represent the food from the Northern, Central and Southern Italian Regions.

The Culinary Tour of Italy is the perfect opportunity to indulge in new cuisine, plan a romantic evening out, or experience that local bistro you’ve been meaning to try for months. Participating restaurants are known for their flavorful, handmade Italian dishes and guarantee an authentic Italian atmosphere for a special night on the town. Buon appetito!
