If you can’t stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen. Jim Burke is in the kitchen all the time, as chef of Caffe Storico, the new eatery in the New-York Historical Society.
The café specializes in “little plates,” or, in Italian, cicchetti. Burke and his wife spent two years in Italy, so his lightning round of questions in this edition of 60-Second Stir-Fry has an Italian through line.
Notice how he answers with an appetizer when I ask him for his “favorite app.” I ribbed him thoroughly for this afterward.
“You’re too young to mess that up!” I teased, as he blushed.
Amy Eddings is the local host of “All Things Considered,” which airs from 4 PM until 8 PM weekdays. She started hosting in 2004, after long-time host JoAnn Allen left for the West Coast. Before ATC, Amy was a reporter. Her favorite topics were--and still are--garbage and recycling, which she still reports on whenever she can get out of the studio.

You may want to correct the spelling: it's not "cicichetti" but CICCHETTI.
Otherwise, good story and great recipe.
