New Jerseyans pride ourselves on our Italian food. Don’t tell New Yorkers but our pizza is superior.

That said, in my mind, there’s nothing better than a bowl of pasta. I legitimately used to eat tortellini for breakfast as a kid, cereal just wasn’t for me.

So when I learned that there was a new restaurant in Union, NJ that focused on pasta, I was in heaven.

The staff at All’ Assassina (or The Killer Pasta Project) pride themselves on their fresh, homemade pasta inspired by the amazing meals the owner had on a trip to Italy.

They partnered with an Italian chef who, according to their website,

creates fine fresh pasta with imported flour straight from Italy, the finest Semolina, filtered water and free -range eggs. Nothing more.

You get to customize your own meal (made right in front of you) by selecting pasta shape, fresh sauce, protein (if desired), and toppings.

If you don’t want to go through that process, they also have signature dish options ready for you.

We picked our favorite sauces, toppings, and cheeses and we designed a very simple and highly customizable menu that is user friendly and pretense free. Made with fresh ingredients, fresh sauce, fresh pasta and love.

And of course, there’s cheese.
