I don’t like pasta, so we don’t go there hardly at all.

I like pasta, but having lived in southern Italy for three years as a “tween,” I can be a bit of a pasta snob.

I make my own pasta dishes and there are a couple of little hole-in-the-wall restaurants owned by Neapolitans in Houston that I go to occasionally.

I’m not a fan of Olive Garden. I don’t think they’re terrible, just a bit bland.

I don’t understand OG’s popularity. There are real Italian restaurants everywhere that have way better food................

True. I don’t get the hate for OG. It’s passable. Not great. What do you expect for a chain brand?
