Pastasciutta

【Foodholic Naiko@Rome, Italy】

This pasta specialty shop "Pastasciutta" is located near the outside of the Vatican walls. Many tourists will stop by to eat a bowl of affordable pasta when visiting the Vatican. However, this shop is very popular, so it is recommended if you are not too hungry yet. Come back to eat when the time comes, and be mentally prepared to queue up

We arrived at 1:35 pm on a Saturday and the queue was very long. We finally waited in line for 30 minutes to order our food, and another 10 minutes to get our food. It showed that it was really busy!

There are only a small number of 7 bar seats in the store. We were lucky enough that someone just left after ordering our meal, so we had a seat! If there are no inside seats, everyone will sit on the floor directly outside the store, which is another way to embody street food😂

There are four must-eat pastas when you come to Rome. We ordered two of them today: Spaghetti Cacio e pepe (black pepper cheese pasta) and Spaghetti alla Carbonara (cheese bacon egg custard pasta). All kinds of pasta only cost €7, which is almost half the price of Italian restaurants outside. The price is great~

Let’s talk about the noodle part first. The hardness performance is really good and the texture remains chewy. I like it very much! The portions served in this store are also very large, so you will definitely be full~

The black pepper cheese pasta tastes too salty, and the milky taste is a bit greasy. I finished about 1/3 of the bowl and stopped eating. I can only give two stars for this taste.

The cheese, bacon and egg custard pasta tastes quite satisfactory. Although the pork bacon tastes a bit hard and salty, overall it has flaws. It tastes inexplicably Taiwanese. I quite like it. I can give it four. star

Overall, I’ll give it three stars. If you’re nearby and there aren’t many people queuing up, you can come and eat~
