"Butta la pasta!"
Translation: "Throw in the pasta!"
If you're one of those who shape their food experiences around good pasta and you also have a little of a history thumb, Chicago Foodways Roundtable's next event, "The Early History of Pasta: Post-Modern Myth and Medieval Reality," might be right up your alley.
Thought pasta originated from Italy? China? Anthony Buccini wants you to rethink that as he guides you through the long complex history of the well-loved carb this Saturday, Aug. 4, at 10am at Kendall College, School of Culinary Arts (900 N. Branch St., west of Halsted Street, north of Chicago Avenue). Cost: $3, Free to Kendall students and staff. To reserve a spot call (847) 432-8255, or e mail chicago.foodways.roundtable (at) gmail (dot) com.
