How have we not talked about spaghetti before?

I was in Chicago for an audit one time and the gals I traveled with found this ****ing high dollar Italian outfit everyone raved about. The pasta was meh and the Italian Sausage I bought was really ****ing undercooked. I mean make me dead undercooked. It took like an hour and half to get the undercooked one so I just didn't eat it and left.

So while I do know very little about Italian food, I've had a decent shot of it and even when I go spend big money I'm not impressed. So you'll just have to forgive my ignorance in this instance.

I can't remember the name of that place, but I went to a place in DC once that blew me away. Very pricey, but they had "pasta mamas" on the first floor making the pastas - was pretty fascinating to sit there and watch someone with a ton of experience making pasta from scratch.
