So, both Craft and Osteria Mozza opened on Friday night, and where did Craft chef Tom Colicchio eat late-night after manning the stoves and making the rounds at tables? He headed over to Osteria Mozza, of course.

While chef Nancy Silverton worked the mozzarella bar, Mario Batali sat down to dinner with family on Saturday night. The roast pork arista he was eating looked fantastic -- a thick slice of tender roast pork loin with a succulent edge of fat.

Craft Los Angeles, 10100 Constellation Blvd., Los Angeles; (310) 279-4180. Osteria Mozza, 6602 Melrose Ave., Los Angeles; (323) 297-0100.
