Heh, I've only ever had this incorrectly prepared, so I thought the eggs were supposed to be scrambled. This is a revelation. Will have to try this.

On a more serious note--there's an Italian restaurant down the street from my office that does a proper, "pure" Carbonara with fresh linguini. Good stuff.

The balance between cheese, egg, black pepper, and pancetta flavors is key.

Ohhhh i make a much meaner Carbonara. I put mushrooms, onions, and a bunch of other herbs in mine. Also i like to use bacon instead of Pancetta for mine.
So how 'bout you post a picture of this mean Carbonara, smart guy?

Here's mine. I'm only using parm reg, which is fine with me. Egg scrambled a teeny little bit, but it was like this when I ate it in Europe too, so I can live with it.

Edit: When there's no cream in the sauce [go suck it, Olive Garden], the dish is at a good level of heartiness. Not what I'd call light fare by any means, but I also don't feel like I want to go to sleep afterwards.

KRAFT 100% GRATED PARMESAN
I always wondered what the 100% meant, since a glance at the ingredients shows that there's crap in there like cellulose and preservatives. Maybe they mean it's 100% grated? That is, that there's no big wedges of cheese or cheese sticks in there?
