Something fresh is coming to North Market Bridge Park, but you might already be familiar with its taste.
This year, local pasta purveyors Goga Bhattal and his daughter Jyoti Bhattal opened their first direct retail pasta shop in North Market Bridge Park, though they've provided their gourmet pasta to some of the finest restaurants in Columbus since 1993. Now, the fresh flavors of Pasta Ditoni's are available for anyone to purchase.
In addition to its 29 unique pasta creations, Pasta Ditoni's is also offering a variety of authentic Italian goods, including specialty Italian desserts, Italian dry and jarred products, as well as fresh cappuccinos, coffee and lattes to go.
It is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday through Monday and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
Bhattal hopes to bring the feel of an Italian family kitchen to the Dublin area. In addition to his valued restaurant partners, Bhattal enjoys making connections with locals and recurring customers, sharing the company’s history along with the recipes he and his daughter created over the years.
After 21 years of mixing and matching locally sourced vegetables, imported cheeses and spices with high quality cuts of meat and seafood, Bhattal believes he has discovered the perfect combination of ingredients in each of his gourmet pasta creations.
You can also order fresh pasta through Pasta Ditoni’s website, which provides free delivery on all orders in the Columbus area. It also features several recipes for a relaxing night in cooking Italian for yourself and your family. Check its website regularly to stay informed on upcoming events all over town.
Currently, its featured dish is shrimp ravioli, a sweet shrimp slow cooked with white wine and lemon oil for a refreshment of summer flavors to gel with the upcoming warmer months.
So, get ready to chow down on the freshest pasta that'll have you saying buon appetito, and stop by to Pasta Ditoni's next time you visit Bridge Park.
