An Italian American Feast
and
The Enchanted Forest of Light
One of our members, Martin Sottile, is launching a home based meal delivery service in the coming months. He has invite Great Outdoors and California Gay Adventures to an Italian dinner party at his home to help prepare him for his big launch.
The meal will include Antipasto, Lasagna Bolognese, Garlic Bread, Garlic Broccoli and Biscotti. Plus Vegetarian Lasagna and meatless antipasto. All local fresh ingredients and imported Italian specialty ingredients. And generous portions. Non-alcoholic beverages being supplied by GOLA and CGA. It’s BYOBooze.
The cost for this offsets a fraction of his costs. Members get a great dinner and Martin gets to practice working out the kinks before his official launch.
As an additional option, many of us will be going to Descanso Gardens, 5 mins from Martin's house, to see the incredible Enchanted Forest of Light *
