The Only Three Decisions That Matter Today."},"content":{"rendered":"

At Bottega 26 in Nha Trang, you can order Bolognese twice and have two different lunches. The first time, you wind homemade fettuccine around your fork and lift a ribbon coated in slow-cooked beef rag\u00f9. The second time, you order the same sauce with mezze maniche. A little rag\u00f9 slips inside each tube and stays there until you bite down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Same kitchen, same pot of rag\u00f9. All you changed was the pasta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, choose the sauce<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Three<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Look at the three bowls. If one were yours, which would you reach for? On the left, our homemade basil pesto coats the ridges of the pasta, with shrimp tucked between the tubes. At the bottom, the beef rag\u00f9 is thick enough to sit on top. On the right, you can see the creamy sauce just inside the open ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re still deciding, try another question. Do you want the heat of tomato sauce with a cool spoonful of stracciatella? That\u2019s Spicy Sorrentina<\/strong>. Would you rather have sausage and mushrooms in a cream sauce? Order Creamy<\/strong>. Once you know what you\u2019re hungry for, the menu gets a lot shorter. Explore the pasta sauces<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, choose the pasta<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Mezze<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Those little pieces in the middle of the board are our homemade potato gnocchi<\/strong>. We make them from potatoes, and it\u2019s that soft bite you\u2019re choosing them for. Try them with Spicy Sorrentina. Pick up one gnocco, a little tomato and a little stracciatella together. Try Spicy Sorrentina<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the right are our homemade fettuccine<\/strong>. The broad ribbons give the rag\u00f9 plenty to hold on to. If you like taking your time over a bowl of pasta, winding a few ribbons at a time, this is how we\u2019d order the Bolognese. Try Bolognese<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the left are mezze maniche<\/strong>, the short, ridged tubes from the three bowls above. They\u2019re especially good with the shrimp pesto. A tube and a shrimp fit neatly on the same fork, and the hollow centre carries a little extra basil pesto with it. Try the pesto with shrimp<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, choose the size<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For the pasta dishes above, you can choose Small<\/strong> or Regular<\/strong>. We like Small when there\u2019s something else on the table you want to try. It also settles a familiar disagreement: if one of you wants pesto and the other wants rag\u00f9, order a small dish of each and swap halfway through. If you\u2019ve been thinking about fettuccine Bolognese since breakfast, go straight for Regular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unless, of course, you want cannelloni<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Two<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then the question is what you want inside<\/strong>. We fill our Vegetarian Cannelloni with spinach and ricotta and our Meatlover Cannelloni with minced beef. Both go into the oven under b\u00e9chamel. See that browned patch near the edge of the dish? That\u2019s where we\u2019d put the fork first. Choose spinach and ricotta<\/a> or minced beef<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
