Are you a lover of Italian food? Perhaps you enjoy a fine Italian wine? If so, you probably can’t get enough of the local Italian restaurants throughout greater Phoenix. However, whenever you visit a restaurant you only have so many options. After all, every restaurant features homemade marinara sauces, various kinds of pasta, and recipes that are often past down from generation to generation. It can make selecting the right restaurant difficult. However, for one weekend next month, things will be a bit easier, all thanks to the return of the Italian Festival to Old Town Scottsdale.
The Italian Association of Arizona recently announced it would be returning for its 9th Annual Italian Festival, taking place Saturday, October 19 (from 11 AM until 7 PM) and Sunday, October 20 (from 11 AM until 5 PM). The festival will feature all kinds of foods to indulge in, not to mention over 30 kinds of Italian wine, live music, and other activities.
Current restaurant vendors that are taking part in the festival include Aroma Culinary Catering, Mamma Lucy, Fabio On Fire, Dolce Vita, IL Bosco, Marcellino Ristorante, Pizzicata, POMO, The Blind Pig, Virtu, and Mi Amore. Some Merchant vendors include Humble Jewels, JW Artwork, Mamma Letizia, Bella Capri Leather, Tea n Lace, Queen Creek Olive Mill, Andy Trotti, Grace & Heart Silvery Jewelry, RTN, Margherita Fray, and DeSirio Tours
