Abbondanza translates to ‘abundance’ in Italian, and that is exactly the way to describe this gastronomic eatery which just opened in Boston in November 2016. The destination Italian marketplace, dubbed Eataly, is located in the Prudential Center shops.
Celebrity Chef Mario Batali has added Boston to his New York and Chicago locations, a veritable extravaganza of all foods Italian. Created through a partnership with PBS’s Lidia Bastianich, Batali’s vision is for people to be transported by the smells and tastes of Italy while liberating them from their cash. So far, it’s working.
