Height: 6 inches, Weight: 8 pounds
This mammoth lasagna is actually 130 layers, "but no one believes us," says Chef Mark Ladner. "So 100 seemed like a nice even number." Mark starts with a layer of Bolognese, besciamella (Italian white sauce) and marinara, then adds a sheet of super-thin pasta, then repeats — and repeats. Assembly takes a full hour and a half, then the lasagna has to cool for up to three hours before he can serve it. Each diner gets a tall sliver from the towering 8-pound piece. delposto.com
