Italiamo - Farfalle al limone - pasta with lemon (Lidl) [@NLi10]

 Occasionally we pick up the expensive Italian pasta from farm shops, and italian delis - and sometimes we pick them up from Lidl!



They have good contacts in Europe so we get good quality random euro products for budget prices - and that's what we have here!


And while it's not quite the peak quality stuff, it's certainly better than your normal pasta - and the lemon flavour is more of a gentle hint than I'd hoped.  This coupled with the other strong Italian flavours of olives and pesto though creates a lovely little lunch and is well worth hoping they still have some left of next time round.

It's awful. Tried it 3 times. Chewy, tasteless and a far cry from decent pasta that doesn't cost much more.

Yeah - I'm not sure pasta should be flavoured, the sauce should do that,
