La Scintilla In Longiano

26/09/2025: In my opinion, it's absolutely the best carbonara in Modena (and beyond). A small, intimate place, very well-maintained. BUT the carbonara can only be had with rigatoni, not tonnarelli, although the cacio e pepe is with tonnarelli. This seems absurd to me because, aside from my personal opinion that tonnarello beats rigatone 10-0, it's a pasta shape they have but refuse to use in carbonara. This is a huge flaw. I've been a customer four times already, and three times they offered tonnarello, but not the last time. I understand those who don't feel the need for tonnarello, but for me, rigatone "ruins" an otherwise delicious carbonara.
