Kneaded by hand every day, coming to life the moment the semolina yields beneath our fingers.
Rough by nature
We seek the texture that only a human touch can create, the kind that holds the sauce and never lets it go.
Rolled to order
Rolled to order. Nothing prepared in advance: our pasta is rolled out and cooked fresh for every order.
It all starts with flour
Matta is Salerno’s first pasta bar, where pasta is made by hand all day long. From eleven in the morning until midnight, the water never stops boiling. Thirteen hours of kneading, rolling and cooking to order, seeking the texture that holds the sauce and never lets it go. No shortcuts, just semolina, hands and time.
The Mediterranean diet is at home here
Just a few kilometres from Salerno, in Cilento, the Mediterranean diet was given the name now known around the world. It’s the way we eat too: wheat, extra virgin olive oil, tomatoes, fish and seasonal vegetables.
