This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The chicken marsala was a bit dry, and the pesto pasta was a bit too creamy. I would recommend adding more spices and herbs to the dish next time.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The chicken marsala was delicious, but the pesto pasta was a bit overpowering. I would recommend using a lighter pesto sauce next time.
