If your kiddo loves Italian food, you should definitely take them to Carluccio’s for a meal. For all of August kids can enjoy a three-course meal with a side of veggie crudites, a delicious main course, dessert, and a drink for every adult main course ordered. The promotion is available at all Carluccio’s branches. There are no boring nuggs and fried on this menu. Instead, kids can choose between mac and cheese topped with breadcrumbs and Parmesan, chicken Milanese, pizza, or a hearty lasagna. Desserts include a chocolate brownie with ice cream or a scoop of gelato. Parents get to enjoy the Italian Summers limited edition menu too. Sounds like la dolce vita, we’re sold.
