A little taste of the Eternal City will be showcased in Windsor, Ontario this spring.
WindsorEats is proud to announce that on April 21, 2023, we will be celebrating the 2776th birthday of Rome. This event promises to be an evening filled with live entertainment, delicious food, and classic Italian cocktails. Guests are invited to dress up in their best togas to really get into the spirit of the celebration.
The birthday bash will take place at WindsorEats’ location at 400 Erie St. E., on the western edge of Windsor’s Little Italy.
The event will kick off with live entertainment, as Pat Pagano and Nino Palazzolo, and Maria Connel will be playing vintage Italian music, transporting guests back in time. From there, the music will transition to current and classic Italian songs, ensuring that everyone has a chance to continue dancing the night away.
Think of it as a mini Italian festival.
One of the highlights of the evening will be the porchetta being served up from Romano’s in Amherstburg. Porchetta is a traditional Italian dish that consists of roasted pork seasoned with garlic, rosemary, and fennel. It’s an iconic dish that has been enjoyed in Rome for centuries and we’ll be serving it up. Mezzo Restaurant & Lounge will also be serving up some Arancini on site, and Gennaro’s Cafe will be slinging their incredible gelato.
Of course, no Italian celebration is complete without cocktails, and the classic and modern Italian cocktails inspired by the eternal city will be flowing all night long. From the classic Negroni to modern twists on Italian classics, there will be something for everyone to enjoy.
But perhaps the most fun part of the evening is the opportunity to dress up in a toga and really get into the spirit of the celebration. Guests are encouraged to embrace their inner gladiator or goddess and wear their be st toga to the event. It’s a fun way to really get into the spirit of the celebration and feel like you’re part of ancient Rome.
Overall, the 2776th birthday of Rome celebration promises to be a blast with live entertainment, delicious food, and classic Italian cocktails.
