In the growing Mario Batali restaurant empire, Babbo remains the jewel in the crown and one of the hottest reservations in New York. Here, in a tastefully appointed townhouse in the West Village, a devoted following packs the house to delight in such creations as Duck Tongue Salad, saffron Panna Cotta, and Pasta Dusted with Fennel Pollen. In the Babbo Cookbook Mario re-creates the Babbo experience. In addition to the abundant recipes, he offers special seasonal menus and sidebars that illuminate the small details that set Babbo apart, from the way they prime the wine glasses to the fresh, local ingredients that are the basis of the restaurant's unforgettable dishes. Designed by the same team that created the look for all of Mario's restaurants and alive with Mario's own warm and friendly spirit, The Babbo Cookbook is the next best thing to dining at Babbo - and no reservation is required.
