𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐂𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚! 🎉🎂

Today we're celebrating the heart of Mamma Roma... our wonderful Cristina! 🥳

Cristina, you are so much more than part of the family... 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲. ❤️ Your love, kindness and selflessness are at the centre of everything we do. You quietly keep things running, always putting everyone else first, never asking for anything in return, and somehow always wearing that beautiful smile.

Thank you for your endless care, your generosity and for making Mamma Roma feel like home for all of us. We truly don't know what we'd do without you.

From all of us at Mamma Roma, we wish you a birthday filled with all the love, joy and happiness that you so freely give to everyone around you.

Have the most wonderful day... you deserve every moment of it! 🥂

𝐁𝐮𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨, 𝐂𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚!

With all our love, Your Mamma Roma Family 🤗

Mamma Roma Newlands had the honour of welcoming the members of Goju Kai Africa to our restaurant. 🇮🇹🥋

It was a truly memorable occasion for our entire team, made even more special because our owner and chef, Romano Gorrini, is a proud member of the Goju Kai Africa family.

There is something special about sharing a meal after years of dedication, discipline, and friendship. It was a privilege to host such an exceptional group and to experience the camaraderie and respect that Goju Kai Africa is known for.

To everyone who visited, thank you for choosing Mamma Roma Newlands. Your warmth, kindness, and appreciation meant a great deal to our staff, and we are deeply honoured to have been part of your gathering.

We look forward to welcoming you all back around our tables again soon. ❤️🍝

Thank you for the memories!
