The sudden onset of hunger pains is the leading cause of unfinished novels, canceled duels, and tied soccer matches. Today's deal employs delicious Italian cuisine to cut down on unfinished business: for $4, you get $8 worth of pasta, salads, sandwiches, and more at The Lasagna Cart, parked at 690 B Hwy. 99 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.

The Lasagna Cart’s straightforward menu of Italian favorites pairs fresh salads and sandwiches with a selection of interchangeable pasta ingredients to help diners build flavorful fettuccine Frankensteins. Forge an edible noodle-friend with fettuccine, angel hair, or spaghetti, then douse creations in creamy alfredo, pesto, or marinara sauciness ($5.50) before adding chicken ($2), meatballs ($1), or veggie accents ($0.50). Forego the creative process by ordering a classic lasagna entree ($7.50) or pacify sweet teeth with a slice of homemade pound cake ($3), which, like dollar bill origami, is made from scratch.

Reviews

Four Yelpers give The Lasagna Cart an average of 4.5 stars:

• The anchor of the menu lets you choose from five pastas and top with one of five sauces. You can add things like meatballs, artichoke hearts or grilled chicken for a little more. – jeepers t.
• If I lived in Eugene, this cart would be hazardous to my health. I'd eat the cheesy garlic bread, dipped in both the tomato and alfredo sauce in succession, as often as possible. – Krystle C.
