The annual Rico’s Ristorante’ is scheduled for Tuesday, January 4, 2011, beginning at 6:00pm. This popular event held at the Miami University Bell Tower Place offers a unique opportunity for interaction with your Miami RedHawks’ Ice Hockey Team. The cost is $10 for adults and $5 for children 12 and under.
Your evening will start off with a greeting by maitre d’ Carter Camper as he welcomes you to this wonderful interactive event. Dinner includes stir fry, pizza, cheese sticks, wings, salad, smoothies and dessert. The players actually serve up the food and at the very popular “wok link” you choose between beef, chicken or shrimp and add all the fixins and veggies you want. Your meal is then personally prepared by one of the team. Served with an egg roll and rice the players show off their culinary skills and entertain the crowd.
A constant “oommmpaahh” can be heard from the pizza station as the guys dish up fresh pizza and bread sticks. Salad and smoothies are offered non-stop. To round out your dinner, dessert includes cherries jubilee (flames and all… the team is really hot this year!) and cookies. A great all-you-can-eat meal for $10.
Good natured ribbing can be heard as the freshmen players who are relegated to “back office” functions, such as cleaning pots, pans and dishes come out of the kitchen. The other players start hollering and shouting to draw attention to them.
Previous year’s attendees have stated this was the best event they had ever attended. It’s great to see the players up close and chat with them as you wait in line. You don’t want to miss this event!
