I can do it better!

[Midgar Mist]

I have been a cook for 8.5 years. Most average restaurants are just that. I could better at home. I find especially with pasta that is the case. Unless it is a fine dining or an Italian place, most affordable places (read: chains) can't do pastas if their life depends on it. There's a special place in hell for those who make carbonara with cream.

I agree. The pasta dishes they foisted on me when I was a vegetarian. That and dull gritty breadcrumbs sprinkled on boring vegetables.
