This dish was a bit too heavy for my taste. The sauce was very rich and the smoked mozzarella was a bit too overpowering. I think I would have liked it better with a lighter sauce and a milder cheese.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. The pesto was very oily and the smoked mozzarella was a bit too strong. I think I would have liked it better with a lighter sauce and a milder cheese.
