The world’s largest bowl of pasta, near the French Quarter!

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — March 21 may have been a lenten “Fish Fry Friday,” but the Italian-American St. Joseph Society had an extra-large pasta for lunch.

Every year, they say it’s the world’s largest bowl of pasta. Delicious, but hard work for the chefs!

“You have 80 to 100 gallons of the sauce, gravy, sugo. A thousand pounds of the pasta. There’s many other ingredients that goes into this dish. It’s a very ornate chore, and a labor of passion and love,” said Peter Gilberti, president of the Italian-American St. Joseph Society.

The chefs worked on the meal for nearly eight hours, and the line to devour it stretched out the door.
