Tickled pink at the Pink Party
We had fun at the Pink Party last Tuesday where we sampled the gelato and Milano’s new paninis. The turn out was great, and people spilled out into South Street to sip pink cocktails on the patio. Italian culture surrounds you at the new space, where Ecco Italy & Spain on Main are now hosting summer classes. The Verity Blue farm tables are the centerpiece of the new location accessorized with gorgeous Italian pottery and other tablewares.
