Francesca's Family of Restaurants


On Monday January 25th, from Mia Francesca in Lakeview to Francesca's Forno in Wicker Park, the entire Francesca family of restaurants will be opening their doors for both lunch and dinner for charity.




The 19 restaurants, both in Chicago and surrounding suburbs, will be donating 100 percent of their proceeds to the American Red Cross in support of their relief efforts in earthquake-ravaged Haiti.

The restaurant owners have pledged a minimum donation of $10,000, but hopefully winter's love of comforting pastas runs deep enough to exceed that goal!


For more information or questions about the location nearest you, call their offices at 773-334-8368.
