Take a glimpse into the kitchen and dining spaces of restaurateurs, chefs, and other culinary personalities we admire, as they teach us how to elevate our own cooking and dining experiences.  Meet Chef Norberto Piattoni of Metta in Fort Greene, where he fires up a locally-driven menu over open flames in his kitchen.  Learn more about how he builds layers of flavor using fire and traditional preservation techniques on seasonal ingredients, along with his custom plateware and design collaborations for the restaurant.
