Was feeling peckish and in this Liberty mall enclave on an early evening, in the hours just after work when the place starts to feel like a ghost town. The idea of a veg Hero Burger did not appeal but I wanted something quick and satisfying.
Drawn in by the signs out front I found Pastalicious empty except for myself and two staff behind the counter. I ordered a simple fusilli and tomato sauce, paid and took a seat. The pasta was prepared quickly, about 4mins but tasted fresh. I liked the thickly wound fusilli they used. What stood out especially was the tomato sauce. I was surprised at how flavorful it was. I actually regretted not buying a jar to take home later. A good simple tomato sauce at a take-out place like this is a pretty rare thing.
The pasta was served in a Chinese take-out container, the paper kind you see on Seinfeld but never get with Chinese food in this city. It kept the sauce in surprisingly well however, I felt like it was a huge waste since I ate in at their window bar and through it out immediately after. If they had some ceramic bowls and silverware for in-house dinners it reduce waste.
All-in-all, definitely worth checking out if you if you're looking for a quick, simple and delicious meal.
