Sugo Sauce was born as the result of a relationship between Nonna (grandmother) and Nipote (granddaughter). They bonded through Nonna’s teaching of her Classico sugo. She was rigid about her recipe and treated the cooking method, the ingredients, and their interaction with great respect. Throughout the years and while honouring its traditional side, Nipote altered the sugo, seasoned it to Vancouver’s multicultural essence and influences, and released the official brand in 2012. In 2014, Pazzo Chow in Chinatown opened to host and compliment Sugo Sauce as a brick and mortar.
