The menu stated that these wide ribbons of noodle came with charred tomato cream sauce, green beans, asparagus, cippolini onion, cherry tomatoes, and shaved parmesan. When the dish arrived, I could smell the enticing smokiness, and I knew it was going to be good. The noodles were cooked al dente, the green beans were the skinny kind, the asparagus was chopped, the cippolini onions were crunchy and sweet, and there were lots of halved cherry tomatoes for a juicy pop. There were also corn kernels that went really well with the smokey tomato sauce. I didn't see any char in the sauce, but it smelled and tasted like it had smoked Spanish paprika in it. The parmesan cheese seemed grated to me, rather than shaved, but it added really nice flavor. This dish had crunch in it, some sweetness, and lots or savory smokey sauce.
