Asta la Pasta - LA FAMIGLIA – Family inspired traditional Italian food in the heart of Stellenbosch

Our family’s longstanding relationship with the Bottello family and passion for Italian food has heralded the next phase in the evolution of Asta la Pasta.

The brother-in-Law duo of Sheldon and Kipper, embracing the tradition and value system for generous service and exquisite food, will be your future hosts.

Chef Sheldon after qualifying from TCA went on to complete his B.Comm in marketing. A stint on the yachts in Italy as a private chef, fine-tuned his love and passions for quality Italian food. His passion for food and hospitality is plated for your enjoyment.

A larger than life Kipper, qualified as a field guide and teacher will share his knowledge and passion of nature with you. From nature guiding in South Africa, to Kung Fu School and Forrest school teaching in China. Kipper ensures a pleasant atmosphere and generous service with exquisite food.

Booking is essential.

    Back at Asta after a long time. Food, as always, deliziosi! A small observation. Our friendly waiter was wearing an arbitrary black shirt with branding from another company. Surely, with the Asta heritage, he should be wearing a shirt with the correct branding ... "the devil lies in the details".
