[SG] An off the menu special at gattopardo, this white truffle pasta was a treat Four grams of that prized fungi was showered all over the pasta covering it in a lavish blizzard of truffle flakes Normally, this would be a good thing, except that you practically have to bury your nose in the pasta to pick up any of the scent, and with a white truffle, scent is the entire point.

Granted, this is no fault of the restaurant as it is not a great year for truffles, but these are pitiful -- and expensive. Save your money.

I would have been perfectly content to order just the pasta as the texture of the fresh egg pasta was amazing and the brown butter sauce was earthy as it coated each strand of pasta evenly leading to a wonderful flavor.
Don't get me wrong, this was great pasta dish. But after paying $70, you would really hope for a life changing dish and unfortunately this wasn't it.
