Happy anniversary, Da Mimmo

Restaurants come and go, and in this economy, we may have to say goodbye to more places than we’d like. So it’s encouraging to know that Da Mimmo has stood the test of time and is celebrating its 25th anniversary with several fun events.

Proprietor Mary Ann Cricchio will kick off the celebration on Jan. 11, starting a noon, with the exact menu and prices from the 1984 menu. Mary Ann promises to wear the original dress she wore on opening day. Now, that’s impressive!

Other events include: Jan.12-16, a three-course meal, $25; Jan. 18, 25 percent of the proceeds from dinner will be donated to the Associated Italian American Charities; and Jan. 21, "Veal Chop" night features the restaurant’s signature dish for $25 (it’s usually $45).
