Me

I really really liked this!  At first when I read ....Dish of the Year...I thought....oh come on.  And then I thought how many eggs are in this?  And there's no way the boys are going to eat pasta with eggs on top.  But I was very wrong and this was very tasty, very easy, and very delicious.  The pancetta makes it! This is another keeper.

Mom

I liked it, I thought it was good...it tasted like a fettuccini with a rich cream sauce.  I couldn't eat a steady diet of it, once in a while though is nice.

Luke and Reed

Luke; It was delicious.  I enjoyed it and it was delcisous.  I like pasta with eggs on it and I loved the spice crispy salty pancetta...perfect Mum!

Reed; Enjoyed the simple light tasting pasta and especially the bits of ham and broccoli spread throughout

Note from Me:  it was broccoli rabe and pancetta Reed!

I liked the egg.  It complimented the rest of the dish and I really liked the flavor.

Looks really, really yummy and I think it would be FAB for a late New Year's Eve supper -- everything you need in one dish! -- with champagne and strawberries and chocolate for dessert!

Now, I just need the Kerr-Dineen clan at my table on December 31st!

Or vice versa.
