Discover the tastes of New Jersey childhood alongside the
refined flavors that come from decades in the culinary
world.
Whether you know Mike Isabella as the
tough-talking Top Chef competitor or as the chef
behind hot DC restaurants Graffiato and Bandolero, you’ll
now be able to recreate his recipes: one part old-world
inspired Italian, one part old-school Jersey, one part
modern Mediterranean—all parts delicious.
Inspired by the food his Italian-American grandmother
prepared, Isabella serves up 200 recipes for everyday meals
that appeal to the heart and the appetite, with a modern
twist. These “small plates” versions of Mediterranean
classics are food that's original and accessible, authentic
without being fussy. Isabella shares his
secret family recipes, the dishes that made him famous on
Top Chef, and signature meals from his restaurant, from
Ricotta with Charred Scallion and Harissa to Grandma’s
Potato Gnocchi, Chicken Wings with Pepperoni Sauce to
Carnival-Style Zeppoles. Whether you’re a seasoned home cook
or just starting out in the kitchen, you’ll taste the pure
joy these meals can bring. Delive ring lip-smacking food
(and talking some smack while he’s at it), Isabella makes
Italian fun to cook again.
