Those who know Hermanus may well know the Fabio's Ristorante Italiano in St Peter's lane. A pleasant, traditional and genuinely Italian eating place.
Little did we know that the trials of 2020 were going to be a blessing in disguise. Fabio's was one of the first to re-open its' doors, but we had the time to create and launch a new and exciting business - Dal-Italia!
Coming from a family of Italian restauranteurs, pasta is a passion...and suddenly, an idea sprang into view - a fresh pasta factory in Hermanus. Finding pasta making machines was elementary...Italian restauranteurs know exactly where to find them! And, as it turned out, the timing couldn't have been better. A venue was chosen, and of-course, as there were no customers anyway, the organisation could go ahead without any inconvenience.
So, the machines were delivered, connected in, cleaned and serviced. Secret recipes were handed down the family and the staff training began (the instructor was one of the family...of-course!). Finally trial runs were completed and pasta appeared on the table. But the name for the business?
For this Fabio went back to his native roots. And after much thought, sketches and scribblings, the name Dal Italia seemed just right. Pasta rolled out of the machines and all was happiness... but there was an awful lot of space left in the venue. Fabio, standing in all this open space, simply wondered if a pasta factory could become a delicatessen. The Dal-Italia Deli was born.
