ELV Admits Being An As*hole (in print!)…and other highbrow culinary insights
Last week, Mad Man Mancini (aka Al Mancini) — Official Friend Of ELV and restaurant critic for Las Vegas CityLife magazine — sat down with us (accompanied by a tape recorder) by the Mandalay Bay pool to discuss the impact Top Chef (currently filming in Las Vegas), has had on the quality of restaurants and cooking in America (and whether its show will be good for Las Vegas). Short answer: Yes indeedy
Click here to read a couple of critics talk about this (and other weighty matters affecting the televised culinary world) in the erudite, learned, incisive and philosophical tones for which they are known.
Lidia Speaks!
If you read our Eating New York piece last week, you know we at ELV consider Felidia one of, if not the best Italian restaurants in New York, and thus, by definition, America.
In the video, Lidia Bastianich expounds upon her culinary influences and her views of the art of being a chef….and an Italian.
BTW: her cooking show on PBS (that garnered a James Beard Award yesterday) is also must see TV for anyone interested in serious Italian cooking and food.
