Please join the Portland Public Market in celebrating its progress toward a full-time, year-round venue for local foods and beverages.

On Sunday, September 18th, in true Public Market fashion, many local producers will showcase their foods at Portland's Basilico Restaurant. The Enoteca portion of the restaurant will feature wines and spirits of the region.

Basilico Chef Paul Ornstein will delight the collective palate with traditional Italian recipes featuring local produce, meats, fish, cheese and breads.

Good conversation, great food, wine and spirits can all be yours for the unheard of price of 50 bucks. And it's all for a "buona causa"; highlighting the many benefits the Portland Public Market will bring to our way of life.

Tickets available through Basilico Restaurant (503) 223-2772.

Reservations are required and space is limited, so call now!
