Some celebrity chefs transcend the art of simply cooking an amazing meal by understanding how food brings people together as part of contemporary culture. On this episode, Dan speaks with Italian chef Massimo Bottura about the keys to his success; struggling with critics in the early days of his now-legendary eatery Osteria Francescana; why he chose to start his own label of aged balsamic; his latest book, “Slow Food, Fast Cars,” which he wrote with his wife, Lara Gilmore, about their prized bed-and-breakfast, Casa Maria Luigia; his love of Ducati motorbikes; and much more.
