At Passo, a new all-day Italian in Old Street in London, you can load up on orecchiette with octopus ragu, and pappardelle with wild boar and port sauce; at Flour & Grape pasta and wine bar in Bermondsey they have eight pasta dishes on the menu and precious little else. And have you seen the queues outside Pastaio, Stevie Parle’s new Italian diner in Soho? People are happy to wait up to three hours — yes, three hours — for a plate of handmade rigatoni in tomato sauce or Genoese-style pesto, which comes with pasta and potatoes.


This quote from the article alone gives me a clue as to what her life style and values are, at least around food. I don't find any of that appealing. I like that food is not a major source of entertainment for me. Sure I like it to taste good but as long as it is minimally palatable it's ok with me. I don't need food to be a peak experience for me. I'm just trying to nourish my body.
