Matthew Suarez on FESTA ITALIANA

"If you are going to be going to FESTA ITALIANA Tampa prepared to be VERY DISAPPOINTED. The whole festival had fair food. No local restaurants or signature Sicilian foods that identify with 
the community’s local heritage.

The Italian Club of Tampa, you might want to rethink things for next year or be prepared for poor attendance. As it was, attendance was quite thin today vs. what I have seen in the past on a Sunday afternoon. I’ve been going to the Festival for years & have always been impressed, but today’s experience can be understood as an embarrassment to the community’s 
Sicilian/Italian heritage." Matthew Suarez
