Growing up, I used to watch my nonno, Giovanni, creating the most spectacular flavours from very few ingredients.

Since then, Ive been a passionate advocate of simple cuisine and Ive always believed that recipes dont need to be fancy to taste fantastico. When this incredible opportunity to launch a restaurant came about, I was really excited by the idea of serving real Italian food quickly, as a healthy lunch on the go. I am so happy to present a selection of my favourite dishes to you and, hopefully, I can inspire you to make some delicious Italian treats at home. I hope you enjoy your experience in My Pasta Bar today and that youll come back again in the future.
