Joe B's Restaurant Man Hits Shelves Today

Joe Bastianich is adding another book to his list of accomplishments today with the publication of Restaurant Man.  In his new, cut-to-the-chase memoir, Joe takes us back to his college days and his year on Wall Street, before he set out to work at restaurants and vineyards in Italy.  The book is a personal, candid, curse word-infused account of becoming one of the most successful restauranteurs in the world.

In addition to feuds that have already gone public, the book talks about Del Posto's struggle to land its fourth star and Joe's eventual partnership with Mario Batali that has lead to one of the most signifiant movements in Italian cuisine.
