Portland's Pasta Spots for Big Plates, Savory Sauce, and Hand-Rolled Noodles
When it comes to good pasta in Portland, the options are competitive. There are so many restaurants offering different styles and levels of rustic authenticity. And lucky for us, many of these places pride themselves in making it all by hand, some forgoing machines altogether and only using the power of a roller and a knife. Today on City Cast Portland, producers Giulia Fiaoni and John Notarianni are joining host Claudia Meza to talk about where to find the best plates of pasta in town, right down to the sauce.
