Over the weekend, locals and visitors had an opportunity to experience tasting authentic Italian food, riding a mechanical bull, and shopping at a sidewalk sale at Zona Rosa for the 15th annual Festa Italiana. For those who preferred a more laid-back approach, there was a wine tasting tent, live music, and chef demonstrations. The fun continued for three days at Zona Rosa’s North Park, the area south of the Dillard’s building.
