Although there may be a number of Italian-leaning restaurants and pizza spots scattered around Vancouver, this simple pastificio invites diners to pull up a chair and savor authentic, well-prepared dishes. They have bistro charm down pat, with black-and-white tiled flooring, a chalkboard emblazoned with the daily specials and a window onto an open kitchen. Consider the specials, then peek into the pasta rolling station and watch as your meal is made. The kitchen's singular devotion to the craft of pasta-making is evident in dishes of studied simplicity, like a single spiraled raviolo with a creamy filling of ricotta, mascarpone, and green garlic with sage butter sauce. The facciamo noi tasting option allows diners to sample an assortment of off-menu pastas.
