Earlier this summer management behind Verrazano’s Pizza on La Brea posted an update on their website announcing : “Due to a fire in the restaurant on 5/6/2010, we will be closed for a while. Please look for updates on this page for our re-opening.” Unfortunately, the pizzeria’s phone number has since been disconnected and a For Lease sign now hangs outside.

Sorry, no updates just yet on M.Volt’s anticipated new restaurant , but after chatting up the chef at TOBH, he conceded to arranging a treasure hunt for Eater and will drop clues about the new endeavor, right MV? Anyway, Josh Goldman , former Sommelier at The Langham and M.Volt’s right hand man, also slated to takeover front of house plus vino duties at that upcoming eatery, apparently has some down time (which leads us to believe the restaurant is still a ways off?). So, Josh has decided to partner up with friends George Abou-Daoud (District, Mercantile, Delancey) and District chef Kris Morningstar to take over District ‘s alcohol situation as guest bartender/mixologist starting this Thursday and running for the next few weeks.

After a much hyped few months, Food & Wine ‘s first annual Taste of Beverly Hills transpired this past weekend with a star-studded kickoff par-tay Thursday evening, culminating with a not-so-casual bbq Sunday night. Some very big deal LA restaurant personalities graced the festival with their presence (and cooking) including Michael Voltaggio , Walter Manzke , Ludo Lefebvre , plus new west coast import Scott Conant (of soon-to-open Scarpetta) and Tim Love who is rumored to be working on a project in Costa Mesa. But putting aside all the food, wine, and overly inebriated guests (witnessed many of those), the talk of the festival came down to New Yorker, Justin Warner , aka J$ .
