This dish was a bit disappointing. The clam sauce was bland and the pasta was overcooked.

The sauce was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra garlic and red pepper flakes to give it some more flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce didn't turn out as creamy as I expected. Maybe I didn't cook it long enough.
