Liberati owns a maccelleria, or butcher shop, that also has a counter where they cook and serve meat, is my understanding.

At the opening of Mercado Centrale in Rome, they had some festivities. I think Liberati was there and cooked meat, although I doubt it was steak, and Bonci made the bread. But I'm pretty sure Liberati never had a booth at Centrale. Even at the opening, according to the pictures, I think he was just making hamburgers.
