No two mac ‘n cheeses are truly alike. E.A.T.‘s version uses penne, two types of cheeses (Swiss and Parmesan) and breadcrumbs. The blend of the two cheeses creates a rich, thick texture. It’s not runny but rather really substantial and copious. The Swiss cheese gives it a slightly bitter sharpness. At $18, this is a very expensive mac ‘n cheese, but it is actually absolutely delicious and worth the splurge every once in a while.
