South Melbourne's fast, fresh pasta place Etto has welcomed a Malvern addition to the famiglia. Etto Malvern does takeaway, too, but is more of a sit-down restaurant, with bench seating up front for eating at pace, and tables and chairs out back.
The concept is the same as South Melbourne - pick a type of pasta (all made there daily) then choose a sauce; popular combos include spaghetti bolognese, and rigatoni with black truffle and salami.
There are also thin-crust, hand-stretched-to-order pizzas, which come off the oven roller in exactly four minutes.
It's open daily, noon-9.30pm. Liquor licence coming soon.
