never understood why the bag is so greasy.

 

[Stranger Things]

Pizza > other Italian pastas > lasagna

But lasagna is pretty good.

 

[smoothj]

These type of threads help with stress. Thx

 

[Beef Supreme]

Only if you ignore pizza and chicken parmesan (yes, I know this isn't made in Italy), then yes.

 

[Tuorom]

Pizza and Lasagna are basically the same. And I love them both.

But I mean

Fettucini alfredo with bruschetta

 

[TaterTots]

It's 100% lasagna.

 

[StrayDog]

pasta aglio e olio

 

[ffframe]

Frutti di mare is amazing if you use fresh mussels and scallops.
Carbonara with guanciale.

 

[Proteus]

Yes.

 

[evrythngwastakn]

Porcetta tho

 

[Hilarious_Bearious]

That ain't how you spell pasta alla gricia. Dat pecorino.

 

[Kisaya]

If you could get your hands on really thin pasta sheets - then you have the best lasagna

 

[bionic77]

Good lasagna is pretty amazing. And the options on how to make it are pretty much endless. Kind of hard to fuck up (after instant pots this one is also a great intro into cooking).

But thats just too many fucking carbs.

Not sure what the best italian meal is. Whatever it is it is something me and my wife don't have the skill to prepare at home. Lasagna might be the king of what we can make at home (our pizza is decent too but the lasagna is better).

 

[Juryvicious]

I won't disagree. Like many I love Pizza... but a homemade lasagna with garlic bread and a Caesar salad is soooo fucking delicious.

Lasagna is basement tier Italian food

The cup of brown leaked?

 

[Mocha Joe]

Does Chicken Parm or francaise count? If so, I will go with that

Maybe but I'm not sure you would put a cup of hot brown in a paper bag like that. That's like ordering a coffee at McDonald's and being handed to you in a bag with your hash brown.

 

[FrsDvl]

It's pizza, but pizza is so multicultural at this point so it's actually Gnocchi

Our local Italian joint puts cups of soda in a paper bag.

Seems like a recipe for wet food.

Yes

No stuffed shells?


ERA's goddamn out of its mind! :p

 

[j7vikes]

Pizza then spaghetti and meatballs. I'm not a huge lasagna fan.

 

[McScroggz]

I feel like pizza is so obviously the choice but also because it's not something you necessarily expect if you go to an Italian restaurant I'll say Alfredo is superior.

Not the first post. Disappointed.

Usually works OK, especially if you have 2, but it's something you have to keep in mind. They typically throw bread, napkins, parm, and plastiware in there.

I'm just here to see the $38.22 Italian meal

 

[Sho Nuff]

Lasagna requires quite a bit more prep work and it's worth it. I'd say > pizza

 

[PhoenixAKG]

Tied with Pizza

 

[GS_Dan]

Lasagna is the best food

It's also another example of food that British culture has refined to perfection

Spoiler: Fine British cuisine

 

[Hokey]

Its pizza. I love lasagne but I think even a good spag bol (ragu) hits harder.

 

[Tavernade]

I don't think I've ever had lasagna that was good enough that I was excited to have it as leftovers. I also find that I'm rarely served enough to be full and there's way too much sauce to lasagna percentage going on half the time.

Pasta wins it, specifically spaghetti or ziti.

 

[molnizzle]

fettuccine chicken or shrimp Alfredo

OP said Italian meal.

 

[Coyote Starrk]

No that would be Pizza.

 

[Rudr]

Gnocchi

 

[Cascadero]

I'd never pick a single dish from Italy as the best Italian food. Lasagna perfected is fantastic, but so can be pizza or many variants of pasta or risotto or osso buco etc etc

 

[Muppet of a Man]

Orecchiette con Salsiccia e Cime di Rapa

Or any other dish mixing Italian sausage, broccoli rabe, pasta, and potentially white beans.

yes, it's gotta be the good shit though.

I passed the chance to eat lasagna yesterday. I feel bad, what I got instead was not as good.

Smug bastard

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Pizza

and lately second would be manicotti personally.

 

[Crossing Eden]

It's like a cake made of minced meat and ricotta cheese so hell no.

 

[RPGam3r]

No it's easily pizza and all of its variations that came from it. From the floppy basic ass NY style to the I-wanted-lasagna-but-made-pizza Chicago style.

 

[danmaku]

Yes, but only if my nonna made it.

 

[Doggg]

Hmm, I'm not sure what would be my favorite Italian dish. Probably a seafood one, though.

Its not the best Italian meal?
Its the best meal!
