I like that the pasta all held its shape really well, and the marinarawhile excessiveappeared fresh and flavorful.
The taste:Taste-wise, this thing performed a little better.

This was actually quite striking, with a presentation that far exceeded anything else on this list.
The pasta and sauce appear in perfect balance, and everything looks super fresh and tasty.

The taste:Turns out, those crispy edges make a huge difference!
It helps the whole thing taste collectively more interesting, and less monotonous.
The sauce is more balanced here, and not as sugary as some of the others.
