Lidia Bastianich hits the 92nd Street Y—smack!—as fancy food soldiers on through the recession, attempting to convince people that sure, they may have sold off the Hamptons House and the Learjet, but at least they can still eat Lamb’s Brain “Francobolli” at Babbo for the comparatively cheap price of $19!
