St. Anthony's Italian Festival - Sunday to Sunday

2011 Festival June 12th - 19th

Mon - Fri             5:30 - 10:30PM
Sun 12th & Sat     2:00 - 10:30PM
Sun 19th             2:00 - 8:30PM

Admission: $5.  There are discounts for seniors and small children.  Visit the website for details.

The Italian Festival needs no introduction, and frankly, I'm on vacation, so here's the festival's latest newsletter, after the page break.  My personal recommendation would be to go at least once, because there's nothing quite like it the rest of the year in Delaware, and to get the half carafe of wine instead of individual glasses, because it's a much better deal.
Your best bet may be to visit http://www.stanthonysfestival.com/ , but the newsletter tells all about the foods available (including some new stuff this year):ere is a preview of some of the specials that will be offered in our cafes.
