| Sponsored    SPONSORED Meet Tony Mantuano Growing up, with all the time he spent working at his family's butcher shop and tending their lush garden at home, Tony Mantuano fell in love with food at an early age. This appreciation for good ingredients has only grown throughout Tony's career and is front and center at his Michelin-starred restaurant, Spiaggia, which he opened 35 years ago in Chicago. Between running his restaurant and mentoring young chefs—many of whom, such as Missy Robbins and Sarah Grueneberg, have gained renown in their own right—Tony is a busy guy. We were lucky enough to get a chance to chat with him about his life in and out of the kitchen.  Tony Mantuano's Braised Pork Neck Bones With Garden Tomatoes and Romano Beans Thankfully for us, Tony shared one of his favorite recipes to make: braised pork neck bones with romano beans. Here's what he had to say about it: "The recipe that is truly important to me—and is not in the least fancy-pants—is Nonna Mantuano's braised pork neck bones with garden tomatoes and Romano beans. It tells the story of my grandparents. My grandfather was a butcher and brought the family the cuts of meat he couldn't sell. Butcher's children don't eat steak! Sweet garden tomatoes, with the meaty-textured Romano beans simmering in a garlic-enhanced sauce on the stove, is an aroma that always returns me to my childhood."
