The food may not come straight from Italy – but a pasta restaurant is on its way to success after being nominated for an award.

FASTA, in Muswell Hill, is up for the British Takeaway Awards, run by online food ordering service JustEat.

The restaurant is run by Ziv Yaakobovich, who also holds sessions in schools to encourage pupils to eat healthily.

The father-of-three said: “Having been in the industry for many years, we are delighted that the British Takeaway Awards has been created to help support all local restaurant businesses.

“Please help us put London on the map and vote for your favourite takeaway in the British Takeaway Awards.”
