The best pasta in Århus? Here's how we make it
For us, good pasta is about the little things: pasta with bite, a sauce that clings to every rigatoni, and no more ingredients than the dish needs. We use classic Italian pasta shapes – rigatoni, casarecce, spaghetti and ravioli – and pair them with the season's produce.
