Just hanging with our little, one of them anyways, while she enjoys making some fresh noodles.

Questa è vita. ❤️

Come on out to Optimist Park from 5-8 tonight and enjoy the evening with us!

See you there!!

Thank you to everyone who came out on Memorial Day to eat with Ella and me. ❤️

It was a pleasure serving everyone. It wasn’t slammed, but Ella got to learn a bit of the cooking side so that when we have bigger events in the future, she’ll be ready to jump in and help with a dish or two.

She was SUPER proud of herself when she got to make an entire order on her own, including Bolognese, Meatballs, and B***o! (If that sounds like it may have been your order, definitely let her know what you thought! ❤️)

As we wrap up our last week splitting focus between the family business and work run by “the man,” we hope to see you tomorrow at 📍Vine Grove Optimist Park for the last Food Truck Friday of the spring from 🕔 5–8 PM!

Summer is officially here, event season is about to roll in, and Papa Pasta is getting ready to take this adventure on full time.

Again, drop us a lead on anywhere you’d like to see us!

Today, Ella and I are serving up dinner and we’d love to see y’all out this evening at Uncle Steph's Ice Cream & Eats from now until 8pm or sell out. It may be a little cloudy, but it’s absolutely worth the trip for fresh homemade pasta. 🍝☁️

To all veterans and active service members, thank you for your service and sacrifice. As a small thank you from our family, if you stop by tonight and let us know you’re a veteran or currently serving, we’ll take 10% off your order.

Get some fresh flowers out to your loved ones and come spend your Memorial Day evening with Ella and I. Grab a plate of hot pasta and tell stories of our loved ones who are no longer with us. ❤️ May they rest in peace. Gone but never forgotten.

Memorial Day dinner plans? We’ve got you covered 🍝☀️

It’s WAY too nice outside to spend the evening cooking, so come see me and Ella tonight at Uncle Steph's Ice Cream & Eats from 4pm til 8pm or sell out! Grab some fresh homemade pasta from Papa Pasta.

Friday rained us out, but tonight is looking beautiful and we’re ready to end the holiday weekend the right way.

If you’ve been thinking about trying us, tonight’s a perfect night for it. Come hungry and enjoy the weather with us 🇺🇸🍝

Line up for the last week of May!

Join me and Ella out at Uncle Steph's Ice Cream & Eats on Monday for some Papa Pasta and delicious ice cream all in one spot! 🍦🍝

Then, on Friday, the whole family will be out at Optimist Park for the FINAL Food Truck Friday of Spring in Vine Grove!

🚨 Yes I said FINAL! After that, the regular weekly set ups end as Vine Grove has some summer celebrations. Find us and our friends again come October when Food Truck Fridays come back for the fall! But that is a Looong wait and who wants to wait that long when you can see us ASAP!🚨

We tried crossing our fingers and even wishing on a star... But with only 3 guests taking a moment to confirm they would love to pick up a couple meals from us rain or shine, it looks like the rain wins today.

Unfortunately, when setting up on a rainy day the location is as big of a factor as the rain itself. a
A small town park away from busy traffic and other indoor activities just isn't the best business decision. We apologize to those who did want to make plans with us, but we'd be likely to spend more in prep and fuels than we would make and have a net negative for the day - especially if we really did only have those 3 guests for those 3 hours. 😢

So keep an eye out for a make-up day! This rain can't last forever - even if it looks like it's making up for the whole season during this 10 day forecast. We promise the rain Will Not win for the next 10 days. We will find a great spot that's more convenient for you to stop by rain or shine!

TLDR: We will NOT be serving dinner tonight 5-22-2026 at Optimist Park. 😭

We're still keeping an eye out for the weather, but it's not looking great, so for real: if you are like us and don't mind getting wet let us know! We need to have a good idea that we can make it worth the hours of prep and cleanup afterwards. As much as we would love to make a personalized meal for a guest or two, it's not the best financially sound business plan. 😅 So, shout it out! Make a plan to come and see us! If we know we can sell 40 meals in the rain we are So Down to sell 40 meals in the rain, but we do need to know we'll get hopefully Close to that 40.

So tomorrow:📍Vine Grove Optimist Park, 🕔 5-8pm - Are You In?!

In the mean time for a bit of behind the scenes fun:

If you ever spot one of us with a fresh little bandage, there’s a very good chance this guy right here is responsible: Pomodoro. 🍅

He may be delicious, but he’s got a temper.

Our pomodoro simmers low and slow for about two hours, and if you don’t keep it stirred consistently, it starts plotting revenge. We bounce from pot to pot to pot trying to stay ahead of it, because the second you let your guard down, giant lava-like bubbles erupt with suspiciously accurate aim. At this point, we’re convinced the sauce takes it personally. 🤔

We do our best to grab photos of the cooking process along the way, partly to document the evidence after an attack, but mostly because we love letting y’all see a little of the magic behind the scenes. Even if we’ll admit... making a giant pot of red sauce look glamorous is no easy task. 😂

Still, we try our best, and here are a few shots from the battlefields of late:

We got lucky on Tuesday and the rain held out for us. 🌤️ Thank you to everyone who came out and grabbed a meal, y’all ma...

We got lucky on Tuesday and the rain held out for us. 🌤️ Thank you to everyone who came out and grabbed a meal, y’all made for an awesome evening! 🫶🏽

Now we’re looking ahead to Food Truck Friday in Vine Grove... and the weather forecast has us keeping one eye on the sky. 👀☔

Here’s the thing, we are absolutely ready to come out and serve up fresh homemade pasta tomorrow, rain or shine. If y’all are craving pasta, we’ll make it happen. We’ll even walk orders out to your car in the rain if we have to! 🍝🚗🌧️

But with weather like this, we do need a good gauge on turnout so we don’t end up wasting a bunch of fresh food after prep. 🫠

So tell us, pasta lovers...
WHO wants Papa Pasta tomorrow night?!? 🙋🏽‍♀️🙋🏽‍♂️

Drop a comment, a GIF, your favorite menu item, tag a friend you've really been needing a rainy day movie night with, or just throw us out a “WE’LL BE THERE!” so we can get a feel for the night and bring the right amount of pasta goodness with us. ❤️
