Old Town Italy - the very word evokes a sense of history and a portal back to a time when life itself was defined by a seemingly more romantic set of values. Romantic values based on a simpler, slower and ‘better quality’ life. At Old Town Italy these values, as old fashion as they may be, still stand. Foundations, built slowly, forged by skill, fortitude, passion and dedication. It is about slowing things down, celebrating ethics, preserving standards and rediscovering quality. There was a time when a visit to your local grocery store was more of a social event than a chore. Where the butcher knew your preferences and the baker greeted you by name. A place where product knowledge, a hearty smile and sound advice was given freely. Old Town Italy’s mission is to restore these qualities and rekindle those experiences. After all, our body is our sanctuary, temple and the only one we have. Old Town Italy is an authentic Italian market where you can shop, talk, eat and learn.

    Maybe could have used more staff as waiter took a while to comeback for our food order.

    Unfortunately this experience was just not worth the money. This is mostly because there was no actual pizza class. The chef comes around for less than 1 minute to show you how to stretch your dough and the rest you build yourself. The service was also super slow, the class starts at 6 and you only have your drinks and starters by 7, eating at around 8. It would be way more worth it to just order your own drinks, starters and a pizza of your choice to begin with.

    Really enjoyed my time and experience. I went to the pizza making class for a birthday celebration and it lived up to all expectations. I enjoyed the variety on offer when it came to the wine, starters, soft drinks and then the main meal. Really an enjoyable interactive experience. Would recommend!
