Pasta Station

Spaghetti with marinara sauce. I added spinach, garlic, and mushrooms.

Sunday, January 18, 2009 - Dinner
Today was my first dinner experience with the dining hall since last May. I kept it safe with a trip to the pasta station.

This actually came up pretty good. The dining hall's recipe for marinara sauce is fairly flavorful and relatively herb-ey. The sauce certainly defeats blandness and the flavors were fairly well balanced today. Although the pasta can sometimes be poorly cooked or old, the first spaghetti of the year was tasty. I asked for a lot of spinach today, which seemed to improve the pasta even more. Since pasta is an everyday mainstay with a lot of variations in sauces and in pastas, there will be many more reviews of this station.

Overall rating - 7.7 of 10
