Cooking rescued Steve Martorano from the streets of South Philadelphia, and an almost certain end in jail, or worse. Raised on Gram's meatballs and Mom's macaroni, Martorano learned at an early age that full-flavored food made with loving hands was the only food worth eating. And, by the way, that's macaroni and gravy, not pasta and sauce, cuz. That's just the way it is in Martorano's world.

Rubino, Michael.
