Big Hollywood: The New York Police Department is investigating allegations of sexual misconduct leveled against celebrity chef Mario Batali.
The NYPD confirmed the probe following a 60 Minutes broadcast Sunday night in which an unnamed woman accused Batali of drugging and sexually assaulting her in 2005.
She says she remembers joining him for a glass of wine at a Manhattan restaurant, then waking up on the floor feeling drugged and assaulted. She says she talked to the police but never filed a report.
Batali issued a statement to CBS denying that he assaulted the woman.
Batali stepped down from daily operations at his restaurant empire and cooking show The Chew in December after four women accused him of inappropriate touching over a period of 20 years. more

Served up a Cosby pudding cup.
I ate at Mario’s place in 2005 and got agida. Is it too late to complain to get a free meal?
What’s the porker been using to stir the sauce when the camera’s are off.
Batali has been a nasty pizza of work the entirety of his career. I am pleased to see he got caught.
I’m looking for more top Foodies to be exposed as well.
Aw, Mooshelle’s good buddy got caught. Too bad, so sad.
So you’re saying the guy with musty, orange clogs and his 5 strands of hair in a man bun is a pig? Color me shocked.
