Artebianca

About

Trained in Italy at the Scuola Italiana Pizzaioli by World Champion Pizza Maker Graziano Bertuzzo, Restauranteur Mark Paterno has been striving to give Australian customers a better pizza since 1984 when he began working in his family’s pizzeria in Haberfield.
Since then he’s dished out traditional Italian pizzas in his own restaurants including Golosia, Crows Nest and Arriva, New Farm, where he won Best Traditional Pizza four years in a row in the Dairy Farmers Best of the Best Pizza Competition, and Best Pizza Restaurant awarded by Restaurant and Catering QLD, and now Arte Bianca, Double Bay.

Arte Bianca

Arte Bianca or “white art” is a term dough technicians use for their craft and at Arte Bianca Restaurant you’ll bite into Romana-style hand stretched classica pizzas that were born from a lifetime of passion and experience.
Mark competes yearly in the World Pizza Championships held in Italy and in 2015 became the Australian World Champion for his Tartufata pizza, a best seller at Arte Bianca.

The Arte Bianca Experience

Food has the ability to take you on a journey. At Arte Bianca we want to transport you to a kitchen table in Italy, where mamma has just set out a table of simple, fresh and honest home cooking for you and your family. Our Italian staff often comment our food is just like mamma used to make, and for us, that’s the highest compliment there is. The restaurant is our kitchen table and we’re happiest when it’s full of our extended family of customers.
