This National Pasta Day (October 17th), pasta lovers on both sides of the Hudson have the perfect excuse to indulge at Blu on the Hudson, the modern American restaurant nestled on the scenic Weehawken waterfront. #Powerjournalist Markos Papadatos has the scoop.

Just minutes from New York City, Blu offers sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline and an upscale atmosphere that sets the stage for a truly memorable dining experience.

Helmed by Executive Chef Juan Carlos “JC” Ortega, the kitchen turns out handmade pastas that are rich, springy, and bursting with flavor. Each dish is thoughtfully paired with luxurious ingredients and bold sauces that elevate every bite.

Featured selections include:

·      Truffle Cacio e Pepe with a soft poached egg, coated in truffle butter, and finished with pecorino

·      Hand-rolled Gnocchi with spicy vodka sauce and locally sourced ricotta

·      Ricotta Tortellini topped with shaved summer truffles, peas, and tender wagyu bacon

·      Lobster Fra Diavolo, paired with spicy four-hour tomato sauce and a basil garnish

·      Bolognese, rigatoni with wagyu and prime blend ricotta, finished with chili
