Petit fours signal the close of festivities.

Styled after its famed Broadway counterpart, Carmine's won't help you stay on track with a diet but it will give you a taste of great Southern Italian food--and lots of it. Take your time in narrowing down such selections as lush pasta ragu with a tomato-based sauce loaded with pork braciole, beef chuck roast, meatballs and sausage; linguine with clam sauce; chicken Marsala; and the hefty stuffed veal chop. Don't overindulge in the bread basket or you'll have regrets when it's time for tiramisu.
