I was walking home with my friend Angie and she told me about this tiny place called Russo's Mozzarella & Pasta Corp.Russo's Mozzarella & Pasta Corp. We would be walking passed it so why not stop in. They have a large selection of fresh pastas, raviolis, and some gnocci's. We decided to try the Roasted Butternut Squash Ravioli and a fresh pasta that looked like telephone cord.
Not knowing what the ravioli would taste like, I decided to serve it with a lightly spiced chicken broth, peas, and cilantro. We liked that the raviolis had an abundant amount of filling. Unfortunately, even with such a light broth, the butternut squash filling was too bland. It was under-seasoned and lacked flavor.
We enjoyed the telephone cord shaped pasta more, especially the shape. It's thick and chewy but lacks a bit of flavor as well. That was easily masked by the simple red meat sauce.Generally, we weren't that impressed with the quality but the fresh pasta is pretty inexpensive at $3 per 1 pound box. I would be willing to try a few more products before I ruled them out.

That's sad. I can completely empathise with your frustration. I hate bad pasta just as I love good ones. In fact bad pasta had inspired me to start my blog ;) |
