Review The lasagna I received was a pretty average plate of the sauce covered noodles. They were a bit dry in the middle but the meat was cooked very well and added tons of flavor to the dish. Along with that the sauce that was on the pasta dish helped to add the classic tomato taste you come to know and love when eating lasagna. As a whole I thought the lasagna I received was a very good dish. Except for some dryness I had in the middle it came out a pretty good dish as a whole. |
