WOW, what a night! 🇮🇹🍷🍝

Volunteering at the “Chefs of Little Italy” Dinner held at our Lodge was such an incredible experience! A five-course meal with wine pairings prepared by some amazing chefs from Little Italy — including Little Italy Lodge’s own Chef Mark.

The evening started with Welcome Aperitivo (Presented by Campari) serving Negroni & Campari Spritz. Then an incredible appetizer prepared by Chef Gianfranco Fracassetti of Café Gia, and the “Lobster Regina” by Chef Nino Germano was absolutely incredible! Next came Braciole (Chef Mark), Meatball (Joe Benny of Benny's), Salad (Bryan Chiapperelli from Chiapparelli's). Dolce (presented by Chef Sylva Lin of Culinary Architecture. Aldo’s famous Limoncello Cream presented by Chef Sergio Vitale of Aldo‘s). Seeing all of these talented chefs working side-by-side in our kitchen was truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment. 👨‍🍳🇮🇹
A huge thank you also goes out to
Espresso (presented by Rob DiPasquale of DiPasquale’s Espresso), Bread Service (presented by Keiller Kyle of Ovenbird Bakery), Final Sweet Treat (presented by Kathy Nelson of MFG Toffe & Bark Company)

The Lodge looked completely transformed. Centerpieces of fresh basil, table numbers painted on lasagna noodles, and tea lights set inside actual bread rolls — so elegant, yet so simple.

Even Poe and the Oriole Bird stopped by! We had great entertainment from Michael Friedman on piano and Steve Flynn with his Sinatra tribute. 🎹🎤

The Friday Night Lodge Dinner dessert area was transformed into an Italian Coffee Café featuring DiPasquale’s espresso. There were photo-op spots, 50/50 drawings (winner drawn August 18th), beautiful decorations, and so many special touches throughout the Lodge.
What an amazing showcase of the food, talent, creativity, and people that make Baltimore’s Little Italy so special.

Kudos to everyone involved in making this incredible evening happen! 🤗👏🇮🇹
