This week NUVO is bringing you the most classic dish from Vancouver’s most consistent Italian joint: spaghetti and meatballs. However, by incorporating some of the finest meat there is, kobe-style beef, into the meatballs, this recipe goes above and beyond Mom’s spaghetti.
Alessa Valdez, chef at the Restaurant at Phantom Creek Estates, has invigorated the Okanagan food scene with her fine-dining-meets-wine-country-casual approach to cooking. This spring risotto, a home-cookery take on the standout dish from her recently debuted spring menu, is the perfect way to celebrate the Okanagan Valley’s post-winter awakening.
For this week’s recipe, we have a delicious spaghetti aglio e olio pasta from the Sandbar. Roll up your sleeves, pour a glass of wine, and add this comforting dish to your love-day menu.
Pasta-making is a fine culinary art that requires patience and dedication. And since we’re all spending an unprecedented amount of time at home anyways, now is as good a time as ever to give it a try.
