Spaghetti alla Bechera

Spaghetti alla Bechera available at Piccolo's
Restaurant: Piccolo’s, Shrewsbury Street

As it appears in the menu: Fresh cut red wine spaghetti, crumbled spicy sausage, mushrooms, plum tomatoes, and roasted garlic.

The Facts: The rich red wine pasta has great color and texture, mixed with small pieces of spicy sausage and mushrooms. Served al dente this was a large portion for  a single person.

Foodie’s Review: Very tasty. The spice level is right up my alley. The sausage is not just spicy but very flavorful with various spices. The subtle earth tones of the mushrooms helps break up the other flavors giving the dish a nice rounded overall flavor that is distinct from the individual flavors.

This review was done by an independent member of the Worcester Foodies group during their monthly meeting in April 2011.
