ABOUT US
Welcome to Panza Piena! This About Us page is more than just an introduction — it’s the heart of who we are. We are a family-run business, rooted in tradition, fuelled by passion, and guided by the belief that good food brings people together in the most meaningful ways.
Panza Piena means “full belly” in Italian — precisely what we aim to give you. Our mission is to fill your panza with the goodness of fresh, handmade, and authentic Italian food. Every bite is created with love, using historic family recipes passed down through generations. From arancini to slow-cooked sauces, each dish is a tribute to our heritage — and if you're lucky, Nonna herself might be the one rolling your arancini.
A Full Experience, Not Just Food
At Panza Piena, we offer more than catering — we create unforgettable experiences. From table styling and Italian ceramic hire to live cooking with our chefs, every detail brings your event to life. Whether at home, your workplace, or a venue, we turn any setting into an Italian celebration.
