The virtues of pasta
24-Feb-04
This is a food micro-review from my lunch today:
Pasta Pomodoro has a dish called Ravioli di Zucca, which is roasted butternut squash ravioli in a butter sauce with sage leaves. It’s amazingly good, and an appetizer-sized portion is about 8 raviolis, so you don’t have to worry about leftovers or overeating. Now, I’m not sure how many Weight Watchers Points it is, but it’s pretty high fiber (squash), and very tasty in a non-conventional (i.e., not loaded with butter and cheese) kind of way. I suspect you could request it without the butter sauce and just sprinkle a teaspoon of parmesan on it without any loss in flavor experience. With a mista salad and water, the bill came to $7.04, which is average for lunch in Milpitas.
