Salute Italia

It is time for us to pay homage to the wonderful food and wines from everyone’s favourite country - Italy, and everyone’s favourite Edmonton restaurant - Il Forno.

Join the happy crowd as we kick off the evening with a delightful Prosecco and some tasty bites. This is followed with three delicious courses accompanied by some of Opimian’s best wines from all over Italy.

Cap it off with a scrumptious dessert (and one more wine). Owner Anna Muze and her staff always look forward to this evening because it is a raucus lot of fun and frivolity in the company of some of Alberta’s friendliest people.

It is no coincidence that this event takes place during one of our two offerings of Italian wines.

Note: there is a choice of entrees, please indicate your choice at time of registration.
