Quite frankly now that's he's let EVERYONE know he's promoting an agenda, he's fair game...
The "free market" WILL be at work just as soon as I email him AND the Food Network.
Is he that fat ass with the pony tail?
Go to Il Mulino instead. The food is more authentic and the service is far superior. Just make sure to book a table four months in advance (like I did).
Another celebrity telling the great unwashed masses the correct way to think. Seriously delusional.
BTW: Mario Batali grew up in Seattle. His father Armandino Batali (who once worked for Boeing) owns Salumi near Pioneer Square.
Ana's on Broadway between 102nd & 103rd Sts. (owned by Susan O'Leary)
Cafe Madeline at 46th & 9th
Bill's Gay Nineties on 54th between Madison & Park
Turtle Bay Club on 2nd Avenue
O'Lunney's, 46th Street
Manhanttan Lounge
A friend of mine is compiling a list. And a list of particularly unfriendly ones.
I knew there was a reason I didn't like that guy that went beyond his rather unattractive personal appearance.
Lets' face it, guy, the red ponytail, shorts and red plastic clogs is NOT a good look.
He needs those "Queer Eye" guys to give him a make-over. Just think of it, they could all share their Bush-hate stories while they snip off that nasty ponytail.
I believe, however, that Mario's mom is of German ancestry. I don't know what part of the boot his dad Armandino is from.
Now, now, my son is/was a chef, and he started wearing clogs after a while. The kitchen floors get so messy that it just trashes your shoes, and you don't want to put that crap in your car. The clogs are just easy to slip in and out of, and you can just hose them off at the end of the night.
Not to say that 'Molto Mario' isn't light in his loafers, (or a true italian for that matter) but clogs alone do not signal which team he plays on.
Since I never need to watch his show again, I guess it doesn't matter anyway. Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust, Mario, you are dead to us.....
IS THIS RELATED TO THE STORY WHERE THEY SPIT IN THE FOOD OF REPUBLICANS? NO, SILLY ME, THAT WAS JESSE JACKSON WHO SAID HE DID THAT.
BWAAHAAA!!!!!!!!
Cafe Egidio in the Bronx is another GOP freindly establishment. The owner used to give extra cookies if you told him you were a Republican. I'll never forget the HUGE signs for Bush and Lazio that they had in their window the day Hillary went campaigining in the neighborhood.
Knock yourself out.
Yeah, I'll contract a sever case of arthritis with those two emails.
Hey, hey, hey! Watch those clog comments. LOL
Why are you laughing? (seriesly)
I guess someone needs to go in with a necklace that says:
President Edwards?????
If he feels his restaurants is so terrific that losing 1/8 (I say 1/8 because it's New York) of his clientelle is no big deal, then good luck to him.
Keyboard accidents are the 3482nd leading cause of home accidents. Mainly hangnails. Be careful :-)
