Would say that the former is indeed really good but the latter was pretty unremarkable, and also served less than hot (presumably because it was ready before the other dish). <br /><br />Also irritated by being kept in a short queue that didn't move for 15-20 minutes only to find that there were lots of empty tables downstairs - were they trying to maintain the impression that people were queuing to get into their cool new place so as to maximise walk-in custom?

Indeed Cacio & Pepe does not use parmesan, and the portions look tiny but fairly priced. I will need to try this :) Pasta Biteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14033201496923113765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588051831069283523.post-82266639643708593952016-04-10T17:14:12.450+00:002016-04-10T17:14:12.450+00:00I've had better pasta in Rome, but Padella are...I've had better pasta in Rome, but Padella are close.Hollow Legshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152329184111658897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588051831069283523.post-25948294913571057982016-04-10T16:06:41.200+00:002016-04-10T16:06:41.200+00:00DAMN!
