Mike and I were roommates (and then building-mates) during the second half of college and the year after graduation. Some of the best times we had were over cured meats and alcoholic beverages; one time we polished off about a dozen sausages from Top Dog and a few bottles of wine over the course of two consecutive dinners while watching pirated Sex and the City DVDs. Seven years later, we’ve done it again, this time with inspiration from a YouTube video I found barely watchable. We made our pasta even better by using some beautiful thick-cut bacon from Mike’s local butcher, adding caramelized onions and a sharp cheddar cheese sauce, then baking it in the oven with breadcrumbs on top.
