Pastalicious Ltd

Authentic, handmade Italian food — from intimate dinners in your home to fresh pasta delivered across London.

What started at Brook Green Market every Saturday has grown into two things I love:

*Pastalicious* — my handmade fresh pasta lab delivering across London, and my Private Chef & Italian Catering service for people who want the real thing at home.

No catering company. No frozen trays. Just me, in your kitchen, cooking for you.

Ciao, I'm Nancy — Italian Private Chef & Founder of Pastalicious.

I didn't come to London to serve packet pasta.

I came to share the food I grew up with — pasta folded by hand one by one, ragù slow-cooked for hours, tiramisu made the way my nonna taught me.

I didn't learn to make pasta in a cooking school. I learned it standing on a stool next to my nonna.

Growing up on the Amalfi Coast, Sunday was sacred. My nonna would make the dough at 6am. Flour everywhere, eggs from the farm, hands moving so fast I couldn't keep up. She'd let me fold the first tortellini. It was always ugly. Hers were perfect.

When I moved to London 13 years ago, I missed everything. The smell of the kitchen, the noise, the family around the table for 3 hours. I went to the supermarket to buy tortellini and I thought — this isn't tortellini. This isn't food.

So I started making my own. In my tiny flat. Just for me.

Then for friends. Then friends of friends started knocking.

One day someone said: "You should sell this." So I did.

I woke up at 4am, made 10kg of pasta by hand, and took it to Brook Green Market on Saturdays. I was terrified. By 1pm, everything was gone. People were coming back saying "this tastes like Italy."

That's how Pastalicious was born.

It was never meant to be a big company. I still make everything by hand, every single day. Small batches. No machines, no freezers, no shortcuts. Just flour, eggs, and a lot of patience.

Very quickly, customers at the market started asking: "Can you come and cook for my birthday? Can you cook for my family?"

That's when I started my Private Chef service.

Now, this is what I do every week:

I cook in people's homes — birthdays, anniversaries, a romantic dinner for two. I bring everything, I cook, you just sit and eat. And during the week, I make fresh pasta and deliver it across London so people can have a little bit of Italy at home.

I'm not a catering factory. It's just me. When you book me, you get me — in your kitchen, cooking the food I grew up with.

If you miss real Italian food, or you never had it — let me cook for you.
