"Say you’re meeting up with a friend in Chelsea, and you’re looking for a casual, attractive place where you can eat a bowl of pasta and make some light conversation. Go to Pastai. They make all their pastas—like bucatini with sardines and garganelli with burrata—in house, and you can get any of them gluten-free. There’s also a bar where you can put your head down and spend some quality time with noodles, if that’s the sort of dinner you need." - Willa Moore, Sonal Shah, Neha Talreja, Bryan Kim, Carina Finn Koeppicus
