If you like Italian food, listening to Italian folk music, eating outdoors, doing good deeds or some combination of all of the above, join Le VirtÃ¹ (1927 E. Passyunk Ave.) on Tuesday, May 25from 6 to 9 p.m. as they help raise money to support DisCanto, a bagpipe-totin', tambourine-shakin' group from L'Aquila, Abruzzi. In their âcampoâ area they'll be grilling pancetta, lamb, fresh-made sausages, ribs and veggies and passing around Abruzzese-style stuzzichini. Buffet tickets are $15 and there'll be specials on wine, beer and cocktails. All profits support the group's upcoming 2010 U.S. tour scheduled to start in October, at which point they'll be making a stop at Le VirtÃ¹. Mangia bene.
