Not only did Mario Batali's, ahem, colorful language become the media's defining moment of the past weekend's South Beach Wine & Food Fest, but it seems Miss Irene's four-starring of the Bazaar was particularly well-timed for the Spanish royalty's visit: "[Batali] noted that [Jose] Andres' Los Angeles restaurant, The Bazaar, had just received four stars from the Los Angeles Times. 'The most motherf------ stars of any Spanish restaurant in the U.S.,' Batali said. Those who were seated near the royal couple said the queen blanched. The king was cooler." All SoBe coverage—from Emeril's tribute to Guy Fieri's entourage—can be had over at Eater NY. [LAT]
