He's not an average chef, he's a really really good chef. He's also a great business man. Is he the "best living chef" though? Not likely. I don't know how that's an "anti-Batalli rant".
Read the thread, YA.

I used to love Mario Batali. He was somewhat of an idol of ours until we got to meet him personally. Tried to talk food and it was very clear he was nothing but an average cook that happened to hit it big with a niche and the upcoming food network scene. Big fat redheaded dork who wears shorts in the kitchen and grotesque orange clogs. He didn't know a damn thing about the food we were cooking...and it was all northern Italian cuisine.
I was responding to this fool.

If you read Joe Bastianich's book Restaurant Man, you will get a bit of insight on Mario as they are partners. It's a good read if not a little self serving.
I'd never pick a "best" because it's way to subjective. I'd say Mario is a very good chef.
