This National Pasta Day (Friday, October 17th), Bella Luna invites pasta lovers to experience a special menu designed for the day with an All-Day Pasta Happy Hour, where diners can indulge in a comforting, crave-worthy selection of pasta classics!
The special tasting menu – $10 per portion:
Tagliatelle Bolognese – house-made pasta with slow-cooked beef and veal sauce
Linguini with Clams – littleneck clams, garlic, olive oil, and a sprinkle of fresh parsley
Homemade Gnocchi – with your choice of Bolognese or pesto and sun-dried tomatoes
Rigatoni Norma – eggplant ragu, cherry tomatoes, and creamy ricotta
In addition to the tasting menu, two pasta specials have been created. These will only be available on National Pasta Day:
· Busiata with Truffled Mushroom & Pine Nut Sauce
This Sicilian-inspired dish features long, tightly spiraled ribbons of busiata, an ancient pasta traditionally wrapped around a rod called busa. The truffle-infused mushroom and pine nut sauce pairs perfectly with the delicate texture of the pasta.
· Spaghetti Arrabbiata with Giant Meatball
A fiery, flavorful take on a Roman classic, the arrabbiata sauce blends ripe tomatoes, garlic, crushed red pepper, and a hint of extra virgin olive oil, served with a massive meatball that’s sure to satisfy.
