Fair enough. I walked past it many times and never noticed this. Since it has closed down, maybe I wasn't the only one. I was dimly aware it made and sold pasta, but that was all. I had no idea if it was a shop, a restaurant or what. And presumably this pasta making in front of the window wasn't going on 24/7? I never saw any samples of pasta or a price list or a menu in the window. Sorry, but a business has to promote itself, and if it doesn't do that well enough then the inevitable happens.
