BeeBo, Beloved

Cherished by chefs, this vintage pasta-maker excels at cranking out cavatelli.

CHEF PETER KLEIN GREW UP with bags of cavatelli in the freezer. “I’m from North Jersey, so we called them ‘gavadeels,’” says Klein, now the executive chef of the Austin cocktail bar and restaurant Holiday. “The first time I said that in a restaurant to a server, the look on their face was utter shock and confusion. I was like, ‘Sorry, cavatelli.’” On any given Sunday, Klein’s mother would hand-crank big batches of cavatelli with her BeeBo cavatelli maker.
