A friend of mine told me about this instagram account that sells fresh home made pasta. I found that different from the usual baked goods people are selling so I thought I’d share it here. They have three kinds of pasta, lemon, pumpkin, and tomato and garlic. Costs KD3.5 for 200 grams and you need to order it at least 48 hours in advance since it’s made to order. The account is @mariarustica
Update: A reader informed me of a professional Italian pastry chef that sells 300 grams of fresh pasta for KD3.5. You can check that account as well by clicking the following link [@italiafoodk8]

Awesome!
a bit expensive…..right?
I was gonna mention that but never really bought fresh pasta before so don’t have anything to compare it to
It is extremely I’m studying in London and I buy 250g handmade pasta and it cost between 1.5 to 2KD. Huge ripoff. Btw these insta-businesses are so unreliable and illegal if they were happening in the UK or Europe.
That’s not a fair comparison though since ingredients cost a lot more here. I tried making healthy bread a few months back and a small loaf ended up costing my KD7 to make because I had to use a jar of cashew butter and that cost me KD5 alone.
That’s not really a fair comparison either though, I mean you didn’t use up the whole jar to make the one loaf, did you?
Finding the true value would be knowing how many loafs could we make with it (number of loafs divided by the price of one jar).
yup, had to use up the whole jar which is why i said the one small load ended up costing me KD7 to make
Now my life is complete
meh, its so easy to make at home and doesnt really require much time but i guess for anyone that doesnt want to go through that trouble this is pretty cool.
And now, you have a pasta dealer 😀
Hi Mark,
you tried my bruschetta once at the Secret Garden. I’m the only Italian there.
An Italian friend of mine, Raffaella, sells 300 g of fresh handmade pasta for 3.5 kd and I can assure it’s top quality. She’s also a professional pastry chef and makes all sorts of Italian sweets.
Her instagream account is @italiafoodk8
Check it out.

there is a restaurant called Scaffali in the duwar il sheraton which makes its own homemade fresh pasta.
