Ciao a tutti quanti.. we’ve had a LOT of anecdotal interest, especially from groups of families and friends, in this very special “early evening” event - A Night in Napoli - but not so many bookings, so we would really like to encourage you to book your place(s) at one of the long tables sooner rather than later, as in NOW if you can, to help us gauge interest and also to avoid a stampede of calls towards the end.

Deadline for bookings and payments, if not sold out prior, 5pm Friday 25 September.

Places are limited. Please contact either Josephine van der Donk (04) 9348720 or Maria Colucci (04) 383 8476 to secure your place(s) NOW!
