Three Solid Reasons to Consider Pasta for Late Lunch Food

Pasta is a terrific solution for busy professionals who have to take a late lunch. It’s one of our most popular items for folks who get carryout meals with us throughout the week. We can prove this, too, provided you visit us for the real deal, which is authentic Italian pasta, rather than resorting to imitation-grade stuff from a can.

Eliminate Hunger & Frustration - Some working professionals and other busy individuals may get “hangry” at around 2 p.m., especially if they intended to skip lunch altogether. We always recommend against that, but if you skipped your ordinary noon lunchtime, it’s not too late to rectify that mistake by checking us out for some spaghetti, lasagna, or eggplant parmesan.

Great Carbs for End-of-Day Energy - Unless you’re on a Keto or Atkins Diet, then you can take advantage of pasta meals to provide that extra boost of energy for the rest of the day. Trust us on this one, you’d much rather refuel with authentic pasta rather than push the test with more coffee and other caffeine sources.

Save a Little for Supper - If you decide you ordered just a tad too much pasta, then it’s easy to put a pin in it for later. Leftover pasta doesn’t last forever, but it’s easy to refrigerate and enjoy for subsequent meals at least for a couple days thereafter. Some pasta lovers prefer to reheat their pasta in the microwave, which works well enough. Try to add a little olive oil or water to it to prevent drying or burning it, though.
