FEAST LIKE A LOCAL
Ciao! We’re Ivan and Val, the people behind Pasta e Fagioli.
We both come from five-star hospitality backgrounds and moved to Australia with years of experience in the industry. Today, Ivan brings his expertise in the kitchen, while Val brings her creative vision and experience in events and venue management.
Before Pasta e Fagioli, Ivan was already making traditional piadina romagnola in Perth. We wanted to build on that and share more of the Italian food we grew up with, keeping things simple and doing them well.
You may know us from Perth’s local markets or our Cheese Wheel Alfredo at Scarborough Sunset Markets. Our pasta truck is where we love to be! Cooking fresh pasta, meeting people and serving good Italian food in a relaxed setting, without ever compromising on quality.
From markets to weddings, celebrations and corporate events, we bring the same approach wherever we go.
Our menu brings together regional recipes from Veneto to Napoli — simple, generous Italian food made to be shared.
about us
From backyard celebrations to weddings, engagements and corporate events, we’ll help you create a day that feels easy, delicious and true to you.
We know choosing a caterer is about more than the food. It’s about having the right people around you and knowing you can trust them with an important part of your day.
We take the time to understand what you want, give you honest advice, and keep communication clear from the first conversation to the day itself.
On the day, we work closely with you, your venue and other suppliers so everything runs smoothly and you can relax, enjoy the food and spend time with your guests.
Bellissimo.
how we work
WITH YOU.
”We hired Pasta e Fagioli as a vendor food truck for our surprise wedding at Baldivis Farm Stay, and they were hands down one of the best decisions we made for the day. We’ve been frequent flyers to the Scarborough Markets, making the hour-plus drive just to get a taste of their creamy mushroom pasta - yes, it’s that good. So when it came to choosing food for our wedding, there was no question. We knew we wanted that pasta, and we wanted Val and Ivan behind it. The menu was absolutely insane..."
When Ivan suggested Pasta e Fagioli as the name for our truck, it wasn’t the obvious choice. A humble dish of pasta and beans didn’t exactly sound like a typical food truck name — and that’s exactly why we liked it.
For us, this dish represents the food we believe in: simple, regional and honest, with no need to impress to be good. And that’s also the philosophy behind what we do —stay true to our roots, not overcomplicating things and caring about the little details.
Today, seeing pasta e fagioli appear on modern restaurant menus makes us smile. Maybe our nonnas knew what they were doing all along.
