🥵 TOO HOT FOR FRESH PASTA… WE WISH WE WERE KIDDING 🥵

📍 Giovanni Fresco’s – 47 Lawrence St, Glens Falls
📞 518-409-8123

OPEN TODAY 11:00-6:00

Today the humidity index has officially reached the level of:

🍝 “Fresh pasta sheets sticking to absolutely everything.”

As much as we love cooking fresh pasta at the Shirt Factory Food Corral, tonight’s heat and humidity are making it nearly impossible to work with.

So tonight at the Shirt Factory we’ll still be there…

🍝 WITH PASTA.
Just not the made-to-order fresh pasta station.

We’ll have plenty of delicious pasta dishes already prepared and ready to enjoy.

BUT…

If you’re craving your fresh pasta fix, air conditioning, and one of our most popular specials…
