Rigatoni Ready For Meatballs

Visit #11, lunch, on the Olive Garden Lifetime Pasta Pass: rigatoni with marinara, topped with meatballs, plus breadsticks, chicken & gnocchi soup.

Visit #111 min read

This visit was all about the rigatoni. Those big ridged tubes soaked up the marinara beautifully, and each piece carried a little bit of sauce into every bite.

The meatballs were tender and well seasoned, a perfect match for the pasta. A bowl of chicken and gnocchi soup on the side added warmth, and the breadsticks were soft and buttery. Two waters kept the pace easy and relaxed.
