SAN FRANCISCO, July 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Parents love Pomodoro because their kids enjoy good food, fun activities to keep them occupied, friendly staff serving them and a kid-friendly feel in a sophisticated restaurant setting. Recently, Pomodoro sweetened things even more with a great deal: kids eat free* on Tuesdays at participating Pomodoro restaurants.
"My wife and I enjoy dining out with our boys, so when I designed our kids' program, it was with the entire family in mind," says Pomodoro Chef and Founder Adriano Paganini. "The best part of having a restaurant is seeing smiling people in the dining room. Even better when it's a family."
With Pomodoro's Kids' Menu, children choose from one of four entrees -- Mini Parmigiana, Cheese Pizza, Grilled Cheese Sandwich or Cheesy Pasta -- or build their own by matching their favorite pasta (penne, spaghetti or ravioli) with their favorite sauce (tomato, tomato-and-cream, cream, meatball or butter-and-cheese). Kids' meals (regularly $4.95) include milk, apple juice or soda and a small chocolate sundae. And while they wait, kids can color (a box of crayons is provided) and keep busy with themed activities on their colorful Pomodoro placemats. The placemats are redesigned two to four times a year with a new theme.
Still, the regular Pomodoro menu offers several popular items for kids. Pre-teens and teens often order the Polpette (spaghetti with beef and pork meatball in a spicy tomato sauce), Capellini Pomodoro (with tomato sauce, roasted garlic, basil and olive oil), Tortellini (with cream and pancetta or bolognese), and Gemelli (twisted pasta, smoked/grilled chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, mushroom cream sauce). Italian sodas allow kids to create their own soda concoctions from a multitude of flavor choices. And it's easy to talk parents into finishing the meal with Pomodoro's mini desserts.
Here's how the Pomodoro Kids Eat Free* on Tuesdays offer works: families receive a complimentary kids' meal from Pomodoro's Kids Menu with the purchase of one adult entree. The offer is good for dine-in customers only, has no cash value and cannot be combined with any other offer.
