Festi dei Formaggi


Fortunato Nicotra Felidia/ NYC

As executive chef of Lidia Bastianich’s Felidia, Fortunato Nicotra has been the steward of the restaurant’s considerable legacy for more than a decade, during which time he has helped it earn two glowing reviews from the New York Times. For his return to the Beard House, this Italian impresario has created an homage to formaggi.
