Please join us @a16sf for Friendsgiving! This is going to be a special one. November 25th!
“Join us for a Special “Friendsgiving”
Celebration in Honor of Lorenzo Scarpone and his beloved home region of Abruzzo.
Lorenzo, a pioneer in bringing Slow Food to the
San
Francisco Bay Area, worked closely with Carlo
Petrini and Alice Waters, helping to shape the local food and wine scene we cherish today.
With Northern California’s Mediterranean climate, we’re fortunate to collaborate directly with local farmers, allowing us to truly understand the origins of our ingredients.
Abruzzo, known as Italy’s primary source of saffron, will be at the heart of our menu. We’ll serve a traditional saffron risotto and offer a selection of local Abruzzese cheeses. In honor of Lorenzo, we’ll also feature wines from his family’s Colline Teramane Scarpone
Montelpulciano d’Abruzzo as well as other Villa
Italia Imports wines such as the rare offerings from Bosco dei Medici, produced within the ancient walls of Pompeii.
We invite you to gather and enjoy an evening of exceptional food, wine, and stories, celebrating
Lorenzo’s lasting impact on the Slow Food and
Slow Wine movements!
Special dishes as well as our regular menu will be available. Reserve @opentable or 415.771.2216.
Walk-ins are always welcome!
Stop by for a glass - - or reserve your table and Lorenzo would be happy to stop by and meet you!”

We are ecstatic and humbled to have our La Maschera, Prosecco featured on ‘Check Please!’ We have been in business for 30 years, importing/distributing wine, representing small family-owned wineries. The pandemic has had devastating affects on our industry. We continue to support our clients/friends and hope that we all come out of this stronger than before. Thank you Leslie Sbrocco, host of Check Please and to Francesco Ciavucco, owner of ‘Il Casaro,’ in North Beach.
