Beleaguered chef Mario Batali is being investigated by the New York Police Department for sexual assault that dates back to the mid-2000s, the police confirm to ABC News.

As Mario Batali attempts to navigate serious allegations against him, more women have come forward to speak about the chef.
As for Mario, the documentary feels oddly thin on its subject as a person or chef. We are told that he is charismatic, and a talented chef, but we see very little evidence of either.
