Pastabella

Sometimes there’s nothing you want to do more than curl up in bed with a big bowl of no-nonsense, carb-laden pasta and watch Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. If you find yourself in this situation and live in Glebe, Pastabella is your friend. The affable Santo Fichera hand-makes his own pastas and teams them with your choice of bolognese, boscaiola, marinara and, well, you know the rest... reliable and satisfying classics to the end. If a sit-down dinner is preferred, there’s a table service area beyond the takeaway shop-looking front section, and veal milanese in a lake of napoletana will do you no wrong.
