New York eatery employs grandmothers instead of chefs
The Enoteca Maria restaurant in New York employs grandmothers from around the world as its chefs. The 'rotating' staff known as 'nonnas' (Italian for 'grandmothers') take turns to cook traditional recipes from their respective cultures. Enoteca Maria owner Jody Scaravella said the "nonnas... get standing ovations on a regular basis and it’s really something nice."
