Batali kitchenware available at select Barnes & Noble stores

NEW YORK Copco's Mario Batali-branded kitchenware line will be available at a limited number of Barnes & Noble locations, according to reports.

The line will be presented, along with Batali's cookbooks on a baker's rack.

According to reports, Barnes & Noble is looking to test the concept with other cookbook authors, but does not intend to add housewares as a store category.
