MirellaNot open - Pranzo Della Domenica - The Italian Experience - Family Stye - Tovico TrattoriaTovico Trattoria, Vaughan, ONCA$107.00
Come join La Dolce Vita Social Group (LDVSG) for another Sunday lunch at Tovico Trattoria! We had such a beautiful experience at our first lunch at Tovico so I would highly recommend those who have not experienced this amazing venue to join LDVSG this time around!
Sundays in Italian families are often filled with memories of large, leisurely meals with extended family. These meals are centred around traditional dishes passed down through generations. Simply put, the Italian Sunday lunch is not just a meal; it is an expression of the love & passion Italian families share amongst one another each and every day around the kitchen table.
The food and service at TOVICO is absolutely amazing. This restaurant has truly captured the true passion and meaning of the importance of family gatherings around the table and sharing meals together.
I do encourage those who truly want to feel the warmth & hospitality of the Italian culture to attend this event!
Tutti a Tavola!
