The Sfoglina Family
Deeply Rooted in Tradition
 
 
Fabio Trabocchi’s fondest memory of being in the kitchen as a child was watching his father make fresh pasta by hand every Sunday on the family pasta table — the very same table where the family would gather to dine, was “engineered” for the Italian love of pasta making. This table is our inspiration for Sfoglina, and you can find it in the restaurant today.
Sfogline, who are the masters of pasta making in Italy and are maternal figures in the culture of Italian cooking, were influential to Fabio as a young cook. From them he learned the craft. Sfogline are maternal figures in the culture of Italian cooking.
"Sfogline treated me like a son and taught me how to be a gentleman, how to polish my shoes, how to iron my shirt, and how to talk to ladies ..."  — Fabio
