I was at a party, and some squiggly looking dude with a bow tie came up and said, Howd you like to be on TV? Turns out he was the programming guy at the Food Network. They had me come into the office, and I did a Ready, Set, Cook with Emeril Lagasse, I believe. – Mario Batali
In America, I would say New York and New Orleans are the two most interesting food towns. In New Orleans, they dont have a bad deli. Theres no mediocrity accepted. – Mario Batali
