I love cream spaghetti

 

Last summer, I went to Busan, my hometown. One day, my elder sister took our family to a very small restaurant in front of her university. The restaurant was hard to find, with no noticeable signboard, so even my sister had spend some time looking for it. The restaurant was a specialty store for an Italian food, especially spaghetti. Since it wasn't a nationwide chain restaurant like Outback, I had doubts about the quality of food there. But the cream spaghetti this particular restaurant made changed my impression of it forever.

 

The "cream spaghetti" had not been in my mind, in fact, I actually disliked it. To me, cream spaghetti tasted just too milky and oily, and it felt like I was always eating more pickles than the dish itself. So when I saw the menu, I was very unhappy because all were cream, cream and just cream. But the moment I put the spaghetti into my mouth, I could feel it melting in my mouth. The cream spaghetti at this small and mysterious restaurant in Busan was just perfect. Each strand of spaghetti was boiled just to the right amount of chewiness and the sauce was thick and creamy, but yet did not leave an unpleasant lingering taste. I just couldn't put my fork down. I devoured the entire plate.

 

I have only been to this Italian restaurant once but since that day, I have come to love cream spaghetti. However, I still haven't found a restaurant that makes better spaghetti than this place. I don't have much chance to go to Busan for my favorite spaghetti but I am always looking forward to having it again for my dinner soon.

    I totally agree that cream spaghetti is just milky and oily! It's really hard to find a restaurant that makes good ones. It seems like you are talking about the best cream spaghetti that you had at Busan, which changed your thoughts about cream spaghetti. I think a little more details about the ingredients or the taste(well, even though cream spaghetti tastes just creamy:D) would have made the spaghetti sound more delicious:D

    One of my favorite food is also a kind of cream spaghetti! I can easily imagine your first time to put the cream spaghetti in your mouth because or your description. So, I think that part of paragraph is a good descriptive paragraph :)

The restaurant was hard to find, with no noticeable signboard, so even my sister couldn’t find the restaurant easily. The restaurant was a specialty store for an Italian food, especially spaghetti.

But the cream spaghetti which this small and unpopular restaurant made changed my impression of it forever.

    The “cream spaghetti” had not been in my mind, in fact, I actually disliked it up until then. To me, cream spaghetti tasted just too milky and oily, and it felt like I was always eating more pickles than the dish itself to feel fresh in my mouth. So when I saw the menu, I was very unhappy because all were cream, cream and just cream. I finally ordered one, complaining to my sister of bringing our family to this place. But the moment I put a few strands of the spaghetti into my mouth, I could feel it melting in my mouth. The cream spaghetti at this small and mysterious restaurant in Busan was just perfect. Each strand of spaghetti was boiled just to the right amount of chewiness and the white or yellowish sauce was thick and creamy, but yet did not leave an unpleasant lingering taste. I just couldn’t put my fork down. I devoured the entire plate in a twinkling.

    I have only been to this Italian restaurant once but since that day, I have come to love cream spaghetti. However, I still haven’t found a restaurant that makes better spaghetti than this place. I don’t have much chance to go to Busan for my favorite spaghetti but I am always looking forward to having it again for my dinner soon.
