We invite you to join us as Chef Lou and Lydia continue to celebrate 20 years of being at Girasole, and over 30 years of being restauranteurs! Since 1991, with their first restaurant Panino located in Manassas, they have proudly served authentic Italian food as a fully chef-owned and operated business. We began New Year’s Eve with a special fixed priced menu, we continued into 2024 with a series of cooking demonstrations led by Chef Lou, and we continue to celebrate our 20 years by bringing the best of Italy to our small village of The Plains.
On Thursday, March 21st at 6:30pm, we invite you to help us celebrate the unique wines of Cenatiempo accompanied by dishes inspired by the small volcanic island off the coast of Naples, Ischia. Each of the five courses have been thoughtfully created by Chef Lou to compliment the wines of Cenatiempo and to present the dishes of Ischia. Federica Predoni, owner of Cenatiempo, will be presenting her family’s wines at the dinner. Please call to reserve, 540-253-5501. A credit card is required with your reservation.
