Photos by Nikki ArtaleThe 33rd annual San Gennaro Feast took place this week on Sept. 11-16, 2012 at the Silverton Casino Hotel and featured more than 70 food booths and 80 amusement rides. The festival president Anthony Palmisano once again brought the town another fabulous San Gennaro Feast with nightly entertainment of our local talent and the best Italian food in Little Italy, Las Vegas. www.sangennarofeast.com
Italian Sausage and Peppers, Philly Cheese Steak, Stuffed Artichokes, Shrimp Scampi, Fried Calamari, Shish kabobs and Linguine and Clams to name the few food items were cooked through out the Feast and the wonderful aromas touched everyone’s heart and filled a lot of stomachs.
Tony Sacca has been a part of the San Gennaro Feast starting in 1985 and he is responsible for bringing all the great talent every night to entertain the thousands of people that attend the event. Tony is a noted singer and television producer and appears with his beautiful “Saccattes”,Chelsea Bernier, Annette Simmonds & Amanda Kaiser. www.tonysacca.com
Many dignitaries were on hand to celebrate the opening night. Mayor Carolyn Goodman is one of our most dedicated mayors and she proves it by her commitment to the Las Vegas Community. I complimented her on how beautiful she looked and she said “Life is good”. I love to hear her speak at events because she is so down to earth and has such a profound humorous side to her as she tells her stories. I am proud that she is our Mayor. http://www.carolyngoodman.com/about/default.htm

The Grand Lady for the San Gennaro Feast was Denise Clemente, a very talented young lady who entertained nightly and everyone enjoyed her performances. Denise received an award for Female singer of the Year by her peers in 2008 and 2009 and has co-hosted “Toast of the Town” show at the Suncoast Hotel Casino. Denise has a talent show “Rising Stars” and features new singing talents, and she brought Loretta Williams, one of her new talents to perform. It looks like Loretta Williams will be a star.

One of my favorite local entertainers Tony Pace flew back to Las Vegas to perform on stage, with his dead on impressions and his powerful voice and comedic skills. Tony performs across the country and we are always happy to welcome him home.
