NAPLES RISTORANTE E PIZZERIA PROVIDES ENERGY FOR RUNNERS BEFORE DISNEY’S® LABOR DAY MARATHON

Tuesday, August 14, 2007 – Naples Ristorante e Pizzeria, located in the Downtown Disney® District, announced today their plans to offer a Family Style menu the night before the Disneyland Labor Day Half Marathon, dubbed “Carb-O-Load.” The carbohydrate-laden menu features three courses designed to provide ample fuel for the would-be runners the day before the run.

The menu features a choice of salad, either a traditional Italian Caesar or mixed greens; a choice of two pasta entrees, with selections including linguine tossed with shrimp in a spicy tomato and pancetta sauce, cappelletti pasta tossed with cherry tomatoes, garlic and fresh basil, and traditional favorites such as lasagna, three cheese ravioli and spaghetti and meatballs; dinner will conclude with an assorted selection of traditional Italian desserts.

The Marathon Menu will be served family style at 5pm on Sunday, September 2, the day before the Disney® Labor Day Half-Marathon. The three-course menu is $21.95 per person, with a two-person minimum.

About Naples Ristorante

Naples Ristorante e Pizzeria is part of celebrity chef Joachim Splichal’s Patina Restaurant Group and features the aromas and flavors of southern Italy — from Mount Vesuvius to the Amalfi coast. Thin-crust Neapolitan-style pizzas are baked in a wood-burning stove according to our classic Italian recipe, in addition to pizza alternatives, including calzones and pagnottelle. The diverse menu also includes a variety of antipasti, pasta dishes, entrees and homemade desserts. Its striking, whimsical motif includes two giant Pulcinellas, harlequinesque figures common in Italian folklore; a beautiful handmade mosaic tile floor illuminated with fiber optic lighting; and an expansive olive tree-lined patio reminiscent of an Italian garden where herbs are grown and used by the restaurant’s chefs.

If there is interest in attending this dinner, I can see if Patina will let us reserve a larger area for a MousePlanet group. Let me know - I can't be there in person, but I'm more than happy to help coordinate.

Hmmm... I don't know how well "spicy pancetta sauce" would go over in my stomach the night before a race. Any other time would be great though!
