    Tomato and meat, preferrably with some arrabiata spicing.

    Everything else is a piss thin crap.

      Eee-yuck.

      If you're going to use parmesan substitute, you may as well just pop round to the local old folks' home, and grate the bottom of their feet. Leastways you won't be paying for it.

          And I just HATE cheese sauces like carbonara.

            Fish, generally a selection and a tin of crab if I'm feeling expansive.

              Provost H does and according to him fish prices in coastal regions are at least as high as inland.

                Just wondering what Alfredo Sauce is btw...

                Anyway I like just about any kind of pasta sauce, it just depends on what kind of pasta and how well done the souce is.

                If we are talking about Spaghettini I guess tomato with a bit a parmesan

                Penne: I like Arrabbiata

                Spaghetti: maybe Amatriciana, or Carbonara

                Gnocchi: I just love them with Gorgonzola or Taleggio Cheese but with Pesto (Genovese Pesto) are also very good

                Anyway... the list could go on forever so I'll just stop here

                  My favorite is carbonara, but it's expensive to make well.
                  Mine as well, though my mom calls it 'heart attack' sauce.

                  What kind of ingredients would you use, Che? My mom is always looking for new recipes.

                    mmmm... love taleggio. And spinaci alla genovese. And linguine al caviale rosso e nero. And spaghetti allo scoglio.

                    In fact, I can’t think of an Italian dish or cuisine I don’t like.

                      Could well be true, but at least if I lived by the sea I could attempt to catch my own!

                        My father does the best of all tomato / tomato+meat sauces in the world, BTW.

                        The recipe is handed on to the next generation. I'm pasta apprentice.

                          Giovanni, Alfredo sauce is a disgusting attempt of a cheese sauce made up of fat, cheese processing failures, fat, and again fat- although most of the italians never heard about that sauce, everybody in the US think that Alfredo is our favourite- note that I wouldn't eat Alfredo sauce even in case of war
                          I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

                            Great to meet such an Italian cousine fan and expert.

                            Call me whenever you are going to Italy so that we may go on a "restaurant-tour" in and around Turin. (where is an hungry smilie?)
                            .
                            .
                            .
                            Ah.. and of course a Wine tour as well... around here I like it to say we have the best wines in Italy

                            Lol ok.. I guess I won't be asking it to Andrea (a chef friend of mine) next time I go eat to his restaurant.

                            Slurp... bad thing I've already eat... cause now I'm hungry again

                              This may well make you all ill, but it isn't too bad really.
                              My girlfriend is a vegetarian, which means that I am too for most of the time (mmmm.... pub Sunday lunches and watching the footie ).
                              We make a pasta dish with fusilli, broccoli and mascarpone cheese, with only a little garlic, pepper and fresh basil and it tastes so much better than it sounds. As long as you don't go overboard on the cheese and make it too sickly to eat then you're doing fine.

                                Oh, get over yourself.

                                Alfredo tastes good and most people really don't care if it's Italian or not. I know you might find it shocking that someone would want to eat pasta with a different sauce then you are used to but I assure you it is true.
