PLEASE don't tell everyone how great the lasagne is at Pasta King - I go there for that dish only (in fact, upon entry and before even ordering a drink, I ask if they have any - I would come back another day if they said no) and you may ruin it for us lasagnephiles who know that Pasta King has the VERY BEST lasagne in town (IMO).
You want real italian with an Italian chef ?? Go to Richie and Iris' new Esturya, Marco's work is fantastic (like the raviolis) and check the specials, omg. If you like al dente, go. If you like ur pasta mushy and tasteless try elsewhere. Best in Duma by far... (dinner only so far).. On Hibbard just up from Tres Bistro between Bianco and Aldecoa....

I always love to hear about new places and Esturya, though I do pass by many times, was not aware, there wa a resto. So visited the place last evening. Upon entering it already gives you the right atmosphere. The furniture is well chosen. Chairs are really comfortable to sit, no rocking tables that you have to ask for a piece of carton to make it steady, an aircon on the right temperature and not like in some places antartic cold. The lights also well chosen. So all the ingredients for a nice diner. The menu has enough choices of various pasta meals. The drinking list is more than outstanding. But what I still do not understand, if you invest so much in a place like this, why on earth is it so difficult that when two people go out for diner and make their orders, one almost has finished his meal while the other still waiting in spite of both staff in kitchen and resto know there's a couple dining. Last but not least, why did I have to wait more than 10 minutes before I got my change. When it finally comes I got a dozen or more 5 and 10 peso coins and a bunch of 20 peso banknotes as wrinkled as can be. Even when my food was tasteful, not sure will give it another try.
My wife and I have found (and I know this is not an ideal solution) that if we order the same menu item then the chances of being served together are greatly increased.... it has worked for us at many places but results may vary LOL
