Better Than a Monkey's Ass Baked in an Empty Clam Shell

Yesterday I had the pleasure of spending the morning with Top Chef's Fabio Viviani at his restaurant, Cafe Firenze, in Moorpark. He is as funny and enigmatic in person as he is on television, and his food is spectacular.

This Chicken Piccata with Prosciutto and Artichoke is just one of five dishes he made for the photo shoot and interview (yes, I got to try them all!!). You can see more photos and read the interview in Intermezzo magazine's All Italy issue, which will come out sometime in May. Oh, and Fabio provided us with recipes for all five dishes, which will also be featured in the story.

Love him! So jealous! I need to get out to his restaurant- it would be worth the drive.
