As Derek Rowe, 30, a sous-chef at Mario Batali’s flagship restaurant on Waverly Place, was coaching his wife of three years through her first childbirth, the doctors and nurses were pondering the chance of getting a reservation. “Deliver the baby and we’ll talk,” barked the new mom, Kamille Adamany, 36, the general manager of American Girl Café in midtown.
