ONE of North Ayrshire’s best loved restaurants celebrated their 10th birthday with a big bash at the weekend.

Cecchini’s at Ardrossan Marina was a hive of activity on Saturday night as they turned 10.

And they gave back to loyal customers with a bouncy castle, BBQ, complimentary drinks, fun and games, live music and a DJ as well as free meals for kids.

A great day and night was enjoyed in a packed restaurant and boss Anthony Cecchini said: “I would like to thank all of our customers for their support. We couldn’t have done it without them.

“Thanks also to our management team and all of our staff members and to Mario Parasog who has been a staff member since day one, he remembers working 18 hours a day to get the restaurant opened and actually slept in the building for two nights prior to opening!

“A thanks also to Heineken, Reid’s Food Services, Robertson’s and Inverarity Morton.” Congratulations to all at Cecchini’s on the special occasion from the Herald.
