This aglio olio pasta is my favorite of all my favorite pastas.

Sitting here whilst waiting, the anticipation builds up. The aroma of it being prepared was like a savory perfume...so seductive. After afew minutes, the pasta was brought to me. The look : a golden yellow orangey hue from the pasta, red bright spots from the chilli padi, green specks of herby goodness and light beige from the little bulb that scares off vampires.

The taste : pasta cooked aldente. Somehow it had a touch of smokyness. Prawns were small (wished it was slightly bigger), a tad overdone and scallops seared to golden brown on one side. There were lotsa crunchy garlic pieces which had a wonderful nutty flavor. But my palate was actually screaming for more heat from the chillis.

Prawns and scallops aside, I could just down the pasta on its own. The aroma, the saltyness, the oiliness, the garlicky & the umaminess were just simply addictive.

Truly enjoyed my date with pasta but I missed the ever smiling face of Vincent @punch.gram
