CHEF ADVENTURES— Massimo Bottura of Modena's Osteria Francescana (three Michelin stars and in the top 5 of Restaurant's 'The World's 50 Best Restaurants'), was in town this past week.

Then on Monday Bottura did a guest stint at Graziella for an Umberto Cesari wine event that promptly sold out sans publicity. [Twitter]
