After a fun weekend, Lundtan wanted to make a delicious Tuesday dinner and looked in the pantry for inspiration. Luckily, we found what most students would have found in theirs; pasta and vodka! After having taken some inspiration from the foodie-YouTubers Philip Cohen’s and Filip Poons’s videos of penne vodka we began our own adventure of making the heavenly dish. If you want to follow the steps we did, look no further! Otherwise, you
