B1 Becoming Pichet, Cookie Casa Opens Feb 11, More!

VENICE— More on Pichet. The Venice space at 2805 Abbot Kinney has been operating as B1 Breadshop up until now. However, owners Patrick Brunet and David Watkins (B1 Bakery) are relocating B1's baking area to the rear to make room for about 25 seats inside and 10 seats outside. The venue should reopen as Pichet, sporting a "European" vibe, in the next month. [Yo! Venice!]

MID-CITY— Slightly delayed, Erin Zabel's Cookie Casa Bakery on Beverly is set to part doors on February 11. [EaterWire]
