On Sunday, October 19th 2003, Terramia Ristorante and Antico Forno  held a celebration for their 10th and 7th year anniversaries, respectively, at Antico Forno, 93 Salem Street in the North End. This Celebration was a characteristic Italian feast called a "sagra" in the tradition of Executive Chef Giusseppe Tinnirello's home town of Frattamaggiore, Naples.

The "sagra" is a community festival for the people that features particular foods native to the region or village preparing the "sagra" . Terramia and Antico Forno  liked to bring Bostonians a step closer to real Italian life with food prepared in the authentic ways that make it so characteristic, so unique.

This Anniversary Celebration  featured the Italian favorite "porchetta" ( slow roasted suckling pig ), served with rosemary focaccia and other Naples specialties, like oven roasted vegetables and fresh peaches al vino. Chef Tinnirello  prepared his now-famous gnocchi with a fresh plum tomato basil sauce. The doors opened at 2:00 pm and for $35 per person, Boston diners were able to participate in a real Italian experience complete with live traditional music. Also, on hand was Chef de Cuisine, Salvatore Gaglio, whotook breaks from the kitchen to play his trumpet. 15% of the proceeds was donated to The Juvenile Diabetes Foundation (JDRF).
