10 Of L.A.'s Tastiest Pasta Dishes — Make Those Carbs Count!
By Kristin Guy

Braised Lamb Neck & Fresh Pasta at Bäco Mercat, $15
Bäco Mercat might be most famous for its sandwiches, but the same attention to detail and surprise flavor notes come into play with other menu items, including this beautiful pasta dish. The richness of slow-cooked lamb is cut with the surprising tartness of pickled lemons and sumac. It’s a confetti cannon of flavor, perfectly balanced and will have you fighting with your dinner-mate over who gets the last bite.
