I Cavallini executive chef and co-partner Nick Curtola, also behind Michelin-starred The Four Horsemen, walks through a busy day at his Brooklyn restaurant. He emphasizes a cooking philosophy reliant on exceptional fresh produce, sourced from the Union Square Farmers Market in Manhattan. The video showcases intricate preparations for dishes like fried eel toast, inspired by Venetian chicchetti; hand-rolled trofie pasta with pesto and Belper Knolle cheese; and nervetti, a multi-day braised beef tendon terrine served with onion salad and savory jelly. Another highlight is a bluefin tuna toro dish with Risina beans, roasted tomatoes, and chervil gremolata. Curtola explains the dedication to traditional Italian techniques, the experimental process behind creating unique offerings, and his commitment to developing his culinary team.
