Eating New York:Union Square Greenmarket/by Shelley Lance, Blog Editor
Saturday morning we took a stroll though the Union Square Greenmarket on the way to Maialino where we planned to meet up with friends for brunch. Union Square, on certain days of the week, hosts a big, beautiful farmers market with organic eggs, wild ramps, cheeses, vegetables of all kinds…. then, to our surprise, we came across Mario Batali, sitting at a table, signing his newest cookbook, Molto Gusto: Easy Italian Cooking, and stopped to say hi.
Only three days later, Mario was here in Seattle for a Kim Ricketts cookbook event at Palace Ballroom with Tom Douglas. Tom’s assistant, Katie O, told me Tom and Mario’s personalities are so similar they seem like “brothers with different mothers.” If you missed this event, as I did, here are a few videos from Seattle Met Magazine’s website…. and here…. and here.
