text: Ehhh For a sortofcelebrity chef Lidia Bastianich business partner to Mario Batalli I was totally UNimpressed with the sunday brunch Thank god I have not bought her cookbooknnI ordered the Pasta Tasting and I wish I had not The whole wheat Paparelle was sugary the penne a la vodka was watery and the raviolle was soaked in butter My parents meals were better which is why I have given three stars nnThat said the atmosphere was beautiful and the antipasta and dessert tables were nicely laid out nnThe kitchen is half open behind the bar and unlike the open kitchens in NYC where the aestitics of the kitchen are well planned out this kitchen had four colored pots and pans thrown on top of the shelves to make it look pretty Umm four pots and an industrial kitchen not so cutennSadly I did not not love this place
