The latest from Cencibel on November 1st, 2008:
UPCOMING EVENT
Bocelli Restaurant, site of Cencibel's November 18th event, might possibly be the area's best kept secret. Bocelli is a small and charming BYOB offering sumptuous authentic Italian fare, specializing in the finest homemade Italian pastas, veal, chicken, seafood and desserts.

In between the two, a Marnie Old Event, and Cencibel members are eligible for a special discounted rate (thanks, Marnie!)

End Notes:
1. Don't want to drive to/from the event? Consider Restaurant Valet or a similar service.
2. Many of you know that the restaurants hosting Cencibel barely make a profit (if at all) with the deal prices they give to us. Please show them how much you appreciate it with your patronage.
3. Our Wine Bag CLEARANCE SALE continues... Cencibel wine bags are being sold at cost: $25 each. Email Deb if you want to reserve one.
