THE PASTA & TOMATO SECRET: A TIMELESS LOVE STORY
Think pasta and tomato sauce have always been inseparable? Think again.

Pasta was enjoyed across Italy for over 500 years before tomatoes were introduced to Europe in the 16th century.

Before red sauce arrived, classic Italian pasta was paired simply with sage, butter, and fine aged cheeses—a tradition of pure, high-quality ingredients that remains timeless today. When Spanish explorers brought tomatoes from the Americas, the iconic pairing we know and love was born.

TASTE THE TRADITION
At The Gnocchi Bar, we bring authentic Lake Como recipes straight to your plate, crafted fresh by hand every single day.

Our current lineup includes:

Handmade Potato Gnocchi

Fresh Ravioli (Butternut or Ricotta & Spinach)

Fresh Tagliatelle

Homemade Lasagna

GET YOUR FIX THIS WEEKEND
Retail Packs: Stock up on our fresh pasta, ravioli, and gnocchi packs at Beacon Isle Spar.

THE GREAT POTATO MIGRATION: GNOCCHI'S GLOBAL JOURNEY
Did you know the original gnocchi contained zero potatoes?

Long before the potato arrived in Europe, ancient Roman legions prepared gnocchi-style dumplings using semolina and flour to feed their troops across the empire.

It was only in the 16th century, after Spanish explorers brought potatoes home from the Americas, that Italian cooks transformed the dish into the pillowy potato clouds we know today.

OUR TRADITION CONTINUES
At The Gnocchi Bar, we honor centuries of Italian craft by hand-rolling every batch fresh.

Our menu and retail selection now feature:

Handmade Potato Gnocchi

Fresh Ravioli with Butternut or Ricotta and Spinach

Handmade Tagliatelle

Fresh Baked Lasagna

HOW TO GET YOURS
Retail Packs: Pick up our fresh pasta range at Beacon Isle Spar.

Garden Dining: Join us for a fresh meal under the trees on Rietvlei Road.

Event Catering: Bring authentic Italian dining to your private events and gatherings.
