23.01.2022 We’re on the road to recovery people... we just have to keep doing the right thing. Info via our good friends at Kingthing.

22.01.2022 A massive thank you to Nathan at Freestyle FX Signs for this initiative. Yes BOTH our businesses, The Pasta Merchant and Pizza Capers, are very much open and adapting daily to the challenges we all face in these crazy, uncertain times. To be honest I’ve never been more grateful to call this beautiful island home.

21.01.2022 Little acts of kindness mean everything right now.

19.01.2022 People are often surprised (myself included) by the quantity of pasta and sauce we make each day from our little kitchen... here we have 70kg of tomatoes bubbling away to make our sauce, 50+kgs each of spaghetti and fettuccine, I don’t even know how much ravioli and as for the spirals and shells ... but we’re well stocked and tomorrow we’ll just be making more.

06.01.2022 We wish all our customers a safe and Merry Christmas break. We are closing on the Public Holidays but the rest of the times are pretty much as normal. See you all again soon.

06.01.2022 We’ve made the decision to temporarily close a little earlier. Apologies for any inconvenience this might cause. Our new operating hours are Mon - Fri 8.30am-7.00pm Saturday 9.00am-7.00pm... Sunday Closed (as usual) See more

05.01.2022 Making pasta can be dangerous... leave it to the experts!

04.01.2022 So this is what’s happening at The Pasta Merchant today... some of the flooring that’s being replaced had been in existence since it was Basil’s Fish and Chips shop. We’ve been here for 18 years so I think it’s long overdue... We will be closed until Tuesday, sorry for any inconvenience that this might cause.

04.01.2022 There’s so much at the moment that we don’t know and can’t control and that can make us feel a little anxious so it’s super important that we focus on the little things that we CAN control. Enjoy the sun, walk the dog, have a gelato... the little things can make a big difference. Have a great day.

02.01.2022 The Pesto Chicken - Freshly made Spaghetti with Roast Chicken, Semi Sun-dried Tomatoes and Pesto Cream. One of my personal favourites (along with the meatballs, gnocchi, pumpkin ravioli and the Modena ) Eat-in or takeaway

02.01.2022 Do you know who hasn’t run out of pasta? We haven’t. AND if we do we’ll just make more.

01.01.2022 We have decided that although restrictions are being eased tomorrow we will not be doing dine-in meals at this stage. We will continue to monitor the situation and reassess over the coming weeks. We are looking forward to continuing to provide you with fabulous meals to takeaway.

01.01.2022 We will be closed on Anzac Day, apologies for any inconvenience. We will remember them.
