EaterWire: Jill Davie in Venice, Anaheim's Catch Relocates, Chin Chin Shuttered?

VENICE—Onetime contestant on The Next Iron Chef Jill Davie is now doing the cooking at Venice Beach Wines. Quoth a tipster: "A pretty straight forward and delicious menu pairs nicely with a good selection of wine and beer." [EaterWire]

BEVERLY HILLS—The suspicions of the locals have been aroused surrounding the sudden closure of Chin Chin in Beverly Hills. According to sources on the street, the only explanation is a chicken-scratch sign claiming that the restaurant is "closed for building maintenance." No return date mentioned. Curious. [EaterWire]

ANAHEIM—30-year-old Catch Restaurant has apparently found a new home down the road from its old location. Owner Joe Manzella has signed a lease for a new 300-seat, 10,300-square-foot space on the ground level of Avalon Anaheim Stadium, an apartment building on Katella Avenue. [EaterWire]
