Why should Italian food cost so much more than local food? That was the burning questions in our minds. We were tired of paying at least $20 dollars per head for a pasta or pizza meal. It's not every night that you want to eat in a restaurant with slow service, gazing into each others' eyes! We wanted pasta and pizza that was freshly cooked to order, that tasted good and which we could easily take away. We wanted friendly service, flexibility in ingredients and enough variety to be able to eat a different dish for a fortnight. We wanted vongole linguine with our favourite white wine sauce;and tomato herb or cream sauce with chicken, and fresh Mediterranean vegetables added on. We wanted Bacon Aglio, or Spaghetti Carbonara with cream of an uncompromising quality. And we wanted all this at a price which meant we could afford to satisfy our pasta and pizza cravings everyday or any day of the week. And so PastaMania was birthed...it proves that all this is possible and more...
