Italian restaurants are always loaded with atmosphere. It doesn't matter that most of the decor is the same in all of them; red and white checkered tablecloths, stiff white linen napkins, candles stuck into empty Chianti bottles, and endless loops of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin songs playing constantly in the background. Other details common to all of them include the same menus, generous portions of garlic bread that come with the pasta dishes, all served by waitresses who don't smile much. Sampling the house red and white wines is also part of the experience; available by the half-carafe for the more frugal customer who dines alone. Can you smell the tomato sauce (from a huge can)? Can you hear the staff bickering in the kitchen? King Possum III fucked around with this message at 05:58 on Aug 23, 2016 |

Unless you get your pizza from a "oh ah mah god it's a really from a Italy, myah family!" place it's all frozen. Fake dough discs with rising chemicals and assholes that don't wash and sanitize before they touch it. We've all eaten ballsack pizza.

What the gently caress do low oil prices have to do with a chain italian joint going out of business? They might as well blame the alignment of the planets or some poo poo

Been in the restaurant business all my life. Italian food. There's a reason why you find Italian restaurants in every corner of this world. It. Owns. It appeals to all. Fun fact: spaghetti tastes better the next day, just put on the pan, add a touch of olive oil, crack an egg and stir letting the egg cook on the pasta. awesome stuff. Try it today recipe; simple and amazing. Need garlic, chilli and parsley. Shallow fry garlic (to light brown, not burned) Add chopped parsley and some salt. Add pepper at the end (as always, at the end) Mix, in the pan, with al dente spaghetti (slightly under cooked) and continue to cook for maybe 30 secs. Yes, that simple. Amazing. For an added bonus you could add pancetta in the frying mix (do not burn it, add with garlic) Cheap. Fast. Awesome. Also: carbonara is ONLY with pecorino romano and pancetta. The rest is just not proper. But Amatriciana is better. gently caress, I could go on forever. EDIT: The reason why Italian restaurants look "simple" is because no Italian gives a poo poo about decor. It is only about the food.

kazr posted:you better believe i used a whole clove of garlic I believe you are confused about the meaning of the word "clove." You mean a whole head of garlic. I'm only telling you this because sometime in the future you're going to be cooking and a recipe is going to call for 6 cloves of garlic and you are going to seriously gently caress that up.

Please don't pay attention to the Amazon reviews of Mario Batali's Bottled Marinara Sauce, it's great.

there is no "proper" carbonara because it always tastes good as hell. i do use pecorino romano though, it gives it the best textureChief McHeath posted:Unless you get your pizza from a "oh ah mah god it's a really from a Italy, myah family!" place it's all frozen.

Most of the pizza places around here you can watch them tossing and spinning the dough and whatnot. Or maybe that's just for show and they swap the fresh stuff out for the frozen because of being so sneaky? I'm going to bed now who's cumming with me
