Where to start

For me parties are always rated on the company – but for this, in addition to an eclectic assortment of homeowners and friends, hands down the happiest and best looking crowd on the beach, it’s the food!

Extraordinary and plentiful!

This year for a variety of reasons the party was held later than usual, but the place was packed and for the first time there were no leftovers (to my disappointment) so

MANGIA!
