i dont really like italian food (well, until recently til tappo and paganelli's.. but anyways). i used to find pasta so boring, plain & bland that i would always end up eating some bland pasta covered in permesean/black pepper. theres no exciting flavors, it just doesnt wake up my tastebuds. THIS was the exact scenario at mezza notte trattoria. plain, boring, bland pasta. bleh. it didnt help that the server was pretty snotty & stuck up, looking so displeased and forced serving us. the pasta dish i ordered was also recommended by this server as well. i dont think i'll ever come back.
