The Square: a passion for perfect pasta

Lillo Due machine-made pasta is better than handmade, says Phil HowardPasta has been on the menu at Phil Howard’s iconic two Michelin star Mayfair restaurant, The Square, ever since it opened in 1991.  “Our philosophy is to deliver pleasure, through harmony of flavour,” he says.  “It’s about simple things, done well.  Everyone loves a great pasta dish.  It can be an absolute, perfect pleasure.”  In the past pasta at The Square has been rolled by hand.  Recently Phil installed a Lillo Due pasta machine, supplied by Fords Food Equipment, and he says it’s helped achieve perfect pasta.  “
