From turkey to tortellini, Villa Christina has all appetites covered

ATLANTA (September, 2006) — Villa Christina, located at 4000 Summit Boulevard near Perimeter Mall, invites you to come enjoy a Thanksgiving Brunch, featuring an abundance of traditional Thanksgiving favorites as well as many delightful Italian specialties. The brunch will be held on Thursday, November 23rd, 2006, from 11:30AM – 3:00PM. Cost for brunch is $45.00 for adults, $25.00 for children ages 6 – 12, and free of charge for kids 5 and under.

A bountiful selection of edibles will entice your taste buds at Villa Christina’s tables. A full array of traditional Thanksgiving favorites is available, including our traditional tom turkey topped with fresh herbs and butter and roasted to perfection by our chefs, creamy mashed potatoes, smashed sweet potatoes topped with marshmallows, fresh cranberry sauce, two types of dressings including our famous cornbread stuffing, and made-from-scratch pumpkin pie. Executive Chef Andreas Georgakopoulos promises that fans of his inspiring Tuscan cuisine won’t be disappointed on Thanksgiving Day, because several rustic Mediterranean dishes will also be featured, including fresh seafood, ravioli with ricotta cheese, walnuts and sage, creamy risottos, and creative pastas. Moreover, there will be a table featuring kid-friendly favorites, such as chicken fingers, macaroni and cheese, fresh, seasonal fruit, cookies and more. Don’t fill up on all this abundance, however, because Villa Christina’s desserts, such as warm chocolate cake and fried cheesecake, are outrageously decadent and are not to be missed. Relax, enjoy the holiday’s wonderful food, and let Villa Christina do the work.

The Italian three-story, stacked-stone Villa Christina features a gourmet restaurant, two elegant ballrooms, two private dining rooms, an exhibition kitchen, an outdoor Event Pavilion and the new “Caffe Christina to go” restaurant. The main dining room boasts a breathtaking view of sprawling grounds, a beautiful stone terrace and a garden event pavilion surrounded by beautiful landscaping, hand-manicured rose gardens, meandering streams and waterfalls. Villa Christina serves lunch Monday through Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and dinner Monday through Saturday from 6:00 until 10:00 p.m. The restaurant, conveniently located just inside the Perimeter, off of Ashford Dunwoody Road and I-285, accepts all major credit cards.
