Bologna Is The Best City In Italy

I Just Signed To Do My Next Book With Ecco Press, A New Primer Or Encyclopedia. This Will Be My Take On What Classic Italian Cooking Is.

I Don't Think Fine Dining Is Dying, But I Think Those Rare Occasions When You Really Want The Fanciness Are Diminishing... I Think A Lot Of People Are Going To Find Simpler, More Casual Ways To Enjoy An Experience.

I Like Thick Or Middle (spaghetti). Thin For Me Is Always Overcooked By The Time I'm Eating It.

Although The Skills Aren't Hard To Learn, Finding The Happiness And Finding The Satisfaction And Finding Fulfillment In Continuously Serving Somebody Else Something Good To Eat, Is What Makes A Really Good Restaurant.

I Would Challenge Any American Cook, Regardless Of What They've Learned From Their Mom, To Operate A Restaurant And Not Have Spent Any Real Time In Italy.
