Palio D’Asti Mixes a Bit of Irish into Annual Italian Father’s Day Feast March 17, 2012

Palio D’Asti hosts an “Italian Father’s Day” on Saturday, March 17 from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. featuring a $65.00 prix fixe dinner with family style platters that will include a nod to St. Patrick’s Day traditions. This annual event, also known as St. Joseph’s Feast, gets its culinary inspiration from hearty “nonna” (grandmother) worthy dishes but given the proximity of the two holidays, Executive Chef Dan Scherotter has added a little Irish-Italia fusion to the menu mix.

Eight starters including cold antipasti and hot Fritto Mixto choices, 3 different risotto, and 3 second courses will be joined by a Beer Braised Corned Beef and Cabbage platter followed by a Sicilian Dessert Sampler. Children under 13 pay their age.

Palio d’Asti is located at 640 Sacramento Street between Kearny and Montgomery in San Francisco. For reservations or more information call (415) 658-9295 or to make reservations online visit www.paliodasti.com.
