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.

    We had a lovely celebration at Asta. The service was faultless and friendly, our food came out in good time and for a large group we were served together, noone had to wait. It was a great dinner with good food, just as you'd expect from a well run Italian restaurant where clearly food is a passion. Thank you
