It was another New York Moment. I was wandering around the NYC streets as I often do when I'm bored and walked by the Union Square Barnes and Noble. They had a sign in the window that said "Mario Batali, discussion and book signing at 7pm." I looked at my watch. 6:59pm. Woot! So I went up to the fourth floor, grabbed one of the few seats left and listened to the charming Iron Chef describe how he makes the perfect Thanksgiving turkey (let's just say its a four day process). It was also neat because his show "Spain: On the Road" with Gwyenth Paltrow airs on 13/WNET and I was just watching it earlier that day while doing the copying. I also went to Otto, one of Batali's cheaper restaurants and it was quite good. The olive oil gelato was intersting and tasty. So, thank's NYC! If only I could meet Ramsey, sigh.
Side note: I swear I saw Laura Linney on the way to work today but she's already on my celeb list so it doesn't count.
So, you got 4 days to cook a turkey don't ya? Love these NYC moments that you keep having.
