Mici Handcrafted Italian celebrates daughters this year on National Daughters Day by offering a complimentary Bambini Meal and small gelato [$7.49 value] to all dining daughters (with purchase of an adult entrée).

The Mici family is raising several daughters, all of whom love sharing in the family business—whether it be by helping in the restaurants or providing “quality control” and making sure the pizza and gelato are up to par.

Mici’s wholesome Bambini menu includes options like kids-sized (hormone-free) Cheese, (nitrate-free) Pepperoni or Veggie Pizza; penne pasta with family-recipe Marinara or Alfredo sauce, or simple olive oil and Parmesan; fun add-ons include Horizon Organic Milk or Chocolate Milk and a side of grapes or grape tomatoes. Plus, kids get their very own ball of pizza dough to play with while they wait.

In this day and age of powdered cheese mixed with processed macaroni and chicken nuggets consisting of who-knows-what, the folks at Mici feel strongly that the food they serve to kids (as well as their parents) is the same healthful, wholesome food they serve to their own family.

National Daughters Day initially came about to erase the stigma in some countries attached to having a girl instead of a boy child. But in developed countries, Daughters Day is a day to celebrate the joy of raising a daughter.
