Paolo Venne has been working in the restaurant industry since 1988. His pizzeria was located in the village of Kryvaya Byaroza, Smolevichi district. The menu included pizza, tiramisu, and other Italian dishes.
According to information on the establishment's social media, the owner is currently looking for investors and partners to open a new pizzeria. If he fails to find support, he plans to return to Italy.
In response to visitors' questions about the possibility of ordering pizza, representatives of the establishment state that such an option is no longer available.
In early June, the Ministry of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade deemed "Papacha Pizza"'s advertising improper. The claims concerned statements such as "We make the best pizza in your city" and "The best Italian pizza chef." The department concluded that such statements create an impression of the product's and its manufacturer's superiority without documentary evidence, and issued a directive to cease the dissemination of this advertisement.
