SINKING SPRING, Pa. – Sunday is International Women’s Day, and a restaurant in Berks County celebrated in style.

Salute Ristorante Italino saluted women with a special event at the restaurant in Sinking Spring.

Several female vendors from the area were spotlighted.

The restaurant’s co-owner says the idea was to give women in the community a safe space to come together and be themselves.

“It’s about stepping into the woman who you are and kind of forgetting about all struggles and I really believe in women supporting women,” said Jessica Giannotti, co-owner of the restaurant. “We can conquer the world when we do that.”

The event also featured an “interactive drink menu” that highlighted four women from the community.
