Philadelphia, PA – One of America’s most extravagant and authentic Italian dining traditions is returning to Philadelphia, where the unofficial motto for the day is “eat until you bust.” Le Virtù, the South Philly restaurant honoring the cuisine of Italy’s Abruzzo region, will host La Panarda on Sunday, June 14, 2026, from 12:00pm to 8:00pm. The eight-hour experience is an excessive, joyful family-style feast featuring at least 40 dishes served over a multi-hour span, testing the resolve of cooks and diners alike. Prepared by Executive Chef Andrew Wood and inspired by the annual sacred Panarda held in Villavallelonga, Abruzzo since 1657, the feast is widely recognized as the only authentic representation of that tradition held anywhere in the United States.
