Vincenzo’s Restaurant will celebrate 25 years as Louisville’s only authentic Italian restaurant with a special anniversary dinner on Thursday, October 6, 2011 at 6:00pm. The event, called “Celebrities, Forks & Dreams” will benefit The Dream Factory, a local organization that grants dreams to children who are diagnosed with critical or chronic illnesses. Local celebrities who have been long-time friends of Vincenzo’s will serve as ‘guest waiters’ as part of the evening’s festivities. (See list below.) Tickets for the event are $100 and include a 3-course meal prepared by Chef Agostino Gabriele for the occasion. A select wine/beer menu will also be included as part of the ticket price. Reservations can be made by calling Vincenzo’s at (502) 580-1350.
The evening will also feature a silent auction and an auction of specially-designed cakes by the celebrities. The cakes will be baked by Jessica Haskell of Sweet Surrender, and will be decorated by the celebrities earlier in the week.
