I'm not partial to angel hair pasta, either, for similar reasons. It
doesn't support the types of sauces I usually prefer, which seem to be too
heavy for the pasta. The only time I really, really liked angel hair pasta
was in a restaurant in Little Italy in NYC. It was served with a light
blush sauce, along with bits of prosciutto, tomato, roasted garlic, and
tiny fresh peas. It was superb.
