The Secret's in the Sauce
Born out of love for great food and a desire for the perfect pizza. We started out with a gazebo
Our Story
Tommy Sugo started with a pizza obsession and a food truck. What began as a single offering at a festival became a full operation: pizza, falafel, shawarma, catering, Long Table dining, built season by season across South Africa's festival circuit.
Where It Started
It started with the sauce. Seven hours, Roma tomatoes, confit garlic, a spice blend that took years to perfect. Once the sauce was right, everything else followed: the hand-rolled bases, the quality toppings, the obsessive consistency. We've been chasing that standard at every event since.
What We Do
We run food trucks across the Cape summer season (September–April), appearing at South Africa's best festivals and outdoor events. We also do private catering: functions, weddings, corporate events, and the Long Table weekend experience at select festivals.
The Philosophy
Good food doesn't need a fancy room. It needs good ingredients, people who care, and the right amount of obsession. We bring that to every event, from a 500/1000/3000 person festival to a 50-person backyard birthday.
The Team
Tommy Sugo is a small, tight crew. We've been doing this long enough to know what works and care enough to keep pushing it. Every pizza, every falafel, every plate that goes out is held to the same standard.
