...open eight Manhattan eateries in the past 13 years--that few chefs can emulate. Many are trying. "Mario does things first, and then two, three years down the line you see it in Cleveland and Chicago," says Patrick Martins, a co-founder of Heritage Foods USA, which sells meat, fish and other goods to high-end restaurants around the U.S. "Mario starts playing with pig bellies and tripe and intestines and even the bladder, and then a lot of people have followed and placed orders [for the same items]. He has reawakened those, quote, low-end cuts...
...time Greenwich Village cook to America's impresario of all foods Italian. On that Nashville trip, 32 local chefs showed up to volunteer to cook with Batali. (Batali's influence can also be seen in the crudo sensation in New York City and L.A.--crudo being Italian-style raw fish, brightly flavored and very pricey.

...just the fish stocks that are suffering. Conditions on many of the ships are appalling, according to Dave Walsh, a Greenpeace web editor who is on the Esperanza. (For his thoughts go to oceans.greenpeace.org). Some boats have holes rusting through the hulls, engines that don't work and portholes that have no glass. Fish and other seafood are stored in scum-filled containers. While the crews on board these ships wait weeks to be re-supplied with fuel and food, they often go hungry and end up eating what they catch. The Greenpeace crew felt so sorry for some...
