Fka Sugo, then Sud, this fresh pasta operation is back where it started 10 years ago with a single site in Altrincham – the name change to Rigatoni’s and January 2024 relaunch having failed to save branches in Sale, Ancoats and central Manchestet’s Exhibition food hall. “The pasta remains the best you will eat despite the puzzling name change and revamp”, say fans – “it’s a shame some of Sugo’s old favourites couldn’t make the trip, but a promising new start!”.
