Before we even went public here in Madeira, PastaDI had already crossed borders — and made headlines in Italy. We were featured in La Stampa, one of Italy’s major newspapers, in an article celebrating inclusive pasta projects and how tradition, love, and social impact can come together… even inside a raviolo.

Seeing our story told in Italy before PastaDI officially introduced itself to Madeira felt surreal — and incredibly meaningful. It reminded us that this project speaks a universal language: good food, dignity, and inclusion.

We started PastaDI to bring authentic Italian pasta, joy, and inclusion to Madeira — and seeing it shared in Italy just feels like a warm hug from home (or half home).

Stay tuned for more stories, behind-the-scenes peeks, and the countdown to our grand opening!
