fire_and_ice_girl Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Fazzoli's in eastwood, libis. Napoli in commonwealth.Nielsen's in makati. Authentic italian pasta, although most Pinoys don't like it because the sauce is too sour for their taste. Quote Link to comment

Authentic italian pasta, although most Pinoys don't like it because the sauce is too sour for their taste.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> authentic italian pasta dishes are indeed an acquired taste for the uninitiated....when introducing "authentic" pasta dishes to newbie friends,its best to start the out with something safe like carbonara or olive oil and garlic...

gen_g Posted February 5, 2005 Share Posted February 5, 2005 practically any pasta dish at italianni's..getting hungry just thinking about it...yummm.. Quote Link to comment
heavygatin_but_cutie Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 authentic pasta..hmm the best pasta i've tried are those from Cosa Nostra in Adriatico and Amoroma in Alabang. I think meron na Amoroma sa may Salcedo..check it out. They make their own pasta..really fresh and authentic ... not like those commercially made sa mga resto. Quote Link to comment
juan_diego Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 speaking of authentic Italian pasta, i don't think it's about the sauce that pinoys do not appreciate. I think it is the pasta itself. Italian pasta is al dente, which most pinoys find to be "matigas." The pasta that the average pinoy knows is actually overcooked pasta - similar to jollibee spaghetti. For me the best pasta are those served in cibo, pasto and don henrico's, which an Italian colleague of mine liked so much. Italianni's pasta is crap, based on my own experience and after tasting authentic Italian pasta. My Italian colleagues laugh at the name of the restaurant itself. They did not want to eat there since the name is a joke so they assumed the food is a joke as well. They were proven right when I reluctantly tried eating there. Quote Link to comment

Roberto (the owner) is an Italian but he might have altered some of his pasta to fit the tastebuds of his mostly filipino customers....eh yung sa Avenito? authentic ba? hindi pa ko kumakain Italiani's, i find it too expensive Quote Link to comment
matt'smom Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 seafood alfredo straight from my kitchen hehehe ... as much as possible gusto ko ako ang magluluto ng pasta dish ko para mailagay ko kung anong ingredients ang gusto ko saka maco-control ko ang lasa.if it's a tomato-based sauce, i don't really care if it's sweet or sour ... depende na yun sa mood ko.
