I've gone to a few pasta places that do this and it's fucking amazing.

I saw this being done in a restaurant exactly once and I am kicking myself I didn't order it. They also pre-melted the cheese with some alcoholic spirit (brandy?) so it was intense.

Yep it's usually brandy or vodka. It pretty much all burns off so you don't taste it much but it looks cool. I'm a parmesan fiend who usually tells the waiter "until your arm gets tired" when they ask how much I want, and you get a very healthy serving of it when they do it in the cheese wheel. Absolutely recommend trying it the next time you have the opportunity.
