Mamma mia, bella! Heart-shaped pasta with the spirit of bourguignon AND bolognese AND ragù? This is what I call a fusion that actually works.
The layers of love in this dish tell me you understand the most important ingredient: patience. Every great sauce, like every great romance, needs time to develop depth.
And banoffee pie for dessert? The British contribution to civilization, improved by being dangerously good. You've created a Valentine's that rivals anything I've witnessed in the most romantic salons of Europe.
Buon San Valentino! May your table always be this beautiful. 💕
