    Italian food is for fags

    That's a fair perspective when Olive Garden is the only Italian food the greater Phoenix area has to offer.
    I laughed but Olive Garden is good. I ate at their sister establish, known as Red Lobster, tonight.
    Christ. It is dog food garbage.
    I’m not an elitist like you. I think it’s good and reliable.

    For generic shit it's fine and does the job. Soup salad and breadsticks is amazing when hungover
    ...or half-baked like @backthepack.

    carbonara ... delicious shit.

    any particular recipe you used?

    Pretty much just made it up on the fly:

    2 eggs and 4 extra egg yolks
    Freshly grated parmesan cheese, like a cup, probably more though. I add a ton of it at the end when I’m mixing everything.
    Freshly chopped garlic, as much as you can handle. I like a lot. Throw it in the pan at the last minute as the bacon finishes cooking. Don’t burn it.
    8 pieces of thick cut bacon, chopped into quarter inch pieces, don’t over cook. Don’t want super crispy bacon.
    Shit load of parsley finely chopped. This and the parmesan add a great herbal/earthy flavor profile.
    Red pepper flakes. More than you think you’ll need. The heat balances out the other flavor components. Goes great with the white wine too.
    White wine. Just use something cheap. I used a nice bottle, which is pretty wasteful for cooking. Adds great flavor though.
    Extra virgin olive oil to augment the bacon fat as needed (dump in all the bacon grease, don’t be a bitch). I only needed a touch.
    Salt and pepper to taste
    Linguine noodles

    You could sub/add lemon juice with the white wine for acidity. I just didn’t have any on hand. You’re gonna want the white wine to drink with this meal anyways.

    Easy there Emeril
