"There are about a million places in NYC to have a bowl of pasta at the bar, but there are a few reasons why you should skip most of them and head to Forsythia. The LES Roman spot has a constantly changing menu, with options like agnolotti with braised short rib, a very good and classic carbonara, and rotating specials like pici with anchovy butter." - willa moore, bryan kim, neha talreja, carlo mantuano
