WHERE TO EAT The best Baked Ziti in the world (according to food experts)

"Recall those chefs and food writers telling us that pasta is its own course, not a side dish, when you’re enjoying a springy cube of baked ziti with your chicken francese at Parm."

"One of my household's favorite "supper-out" dishes is the baked ziti with sausage at Bella's Italian Cafe in Habersham Village."

"The side dishes hit the spot (lobster and black truffle baked ziti, for example) and everything seems crowned with extra indulgence."

"It is the most popular entree at Mario’s, but unlike ziti at other restaurants, it’s served slab-style similar to traditional lasagna. Instead of traditional ziti pasta, it is made with lasagna noodles. Top it with Mario’s magnificent meat sauce and you’ve got maybe the best ziti around."

"As for the pasta, it was ziti through and through, with little else to say. The mozzarella on top of the dish had been crisped and melted to perfection in the oven, and I was a happy man."

"Baked ziti is cheesy-gooey and bubbly hot. My favorite dish."

"If it weren't for their baked ziti and Alfredo I wouldn't have made it out of puberty."

"For my entree I had the Baked Ziti and it was absolutely AMAZING!"

"Treat yourself to the delicious Baked Ziti."
