Review :
I was given a gift of a piastra (Italian Grill). A flyer accompanied the grill that indicated this book has piastra recipes. I bought the book to find that the only 5-6 piastra recipes in the book are the same ones that were on the flyer. There is nothing special about this cookbook. Save your money....

Review :
Mario Batali is undoubtedly one of the best teachers around. His shows overflow with hints, comments, facts and tidbits of his worldwide travels. Molto Mario is probably the best food show (for serious cooks) on the tube. So it was with great anticipation that I purchased this book on grilling. I noted immediately the "simplistic" approach he took to almost every recipe. We are presented with approachable food with excellent tastes prepared in the most basic of ways.

Believe piastra, but take grill with a huge grain of salt

Review :
After a week or so with Mario Batali's "Italian Grill", I can give you a good rule of thumb: Everything he says involving a piastra (or which might possibly involve a piastra) is dead on. Everything he says otherwise you should seriously question in regard to cooking times/temperatures.
When Mario says to make the piastra HOT, he means it. When there are recipes like the thick onion slices with lemon thyme, that presumably could be cooked on the piastra even though it isn't...

We saw this cookbook at a friends house and had to have a copy. Since we're living in our RV while we're constructing our house, the grill has become crucial. The recipes are interesting and well detailed. The stone cooking method (Piastra) has given me a whole new dimension with the grill. Also, this is the only cookbook that I've seen that gives a specific recipe for King Mackeral, which is readily available here. The photography is superb. We're very pleased with this purchase!...
