Jean-Georges looks forward to tastings this week for the 50 seat pizzeria he’s doing with Sullivan Street Bakery’s Jim Leahey at 230 Ninth Avenue at 24th street. It’s Jean-George’s first pizzeria venture and Leahy’s first restaurant. Leahey is an icon to purists who admire his style of slow natural fermentation. “I’ve been using his bread for years,” says Vongerichten. About pizza? ”We’ll have our five cents to say,” he said. We being Phil Saurez. “He’s my producer. He did Michael Jackson’s "Thriller." Now he does me.” Vongerichten’s Spice Market is about to open in Doha (Qatar). He’s signed to do a steak house at the Pheonician in Arizona, and is negotiating with a landmark hotel to do a steak house in Manhattan. He won’t say where –“It’s still in negotiation and anything can happen.” Rumors I hear put it on the Upper East Side. ((from Gael Greene))

gonna have to try this:
For those of you wanting to try an egg yolk ravioli, they're very easy. Marcella Hazan recommends a cup of flour and two eggs to make a pasta dough, mixed and kneaded till it's satiny, about ten minutes. While it's resting in plastic wrap in the fridge, mix into a cup of ricotta, citrus zest (any kind you like, lemon and orange are great, maybe a little juice), black pepper, espelette if you have it, some chives or minced shallot if you have it, kosher salt (and taste it for to make sure it's delicious). Make a pillow on the pasta for the yolk, put a little cheese on top to protect the yolk, and fold the pasta over it, using water or egg wash to seal the pasta. Boil gently for a few minutes and serve with a brown butter and some julienned parsley. The yellow ooze is worth the effort.
