Asparagus & lemon linguine @ Noodles & Co.

I love, love, love asparagus, so when I saw Noodles & Co. had a new asparagus dish, I was all on that (after I confirmed it would be gluten-free if served with rice noodles).

First, I walked in my local Noodles & Co, and didn't recognize anyone. Usually I see the same people working there and know they understand the whole "gluten thing", but it made me nervous when it took the person taking my order 5 minutes to figure out how to put an 'allergen aware' order in. But, in the end, it worked out and I enjoyed my pasta. It was meh. The asparagus wasn't very flavorful, but I did really enjoy the sugar snap peas. Maybe it is because I had them 86 the 'shrooms and it was missing something.

It was nice to have a different dish, but I will stick with my regular, the pasta fresca with feta with broccoli added into it.

If you get a chance to try it let me know your thoughts.

I love asparagus season....it is best grilled!
