Jason Neroni Is Back Cooking in Venice After Best Bet’s Sudden Closure - Eater LA
"Jason Neroni, the former chef of the Rose and the now-closed Best Bet Pizzeria, has landed at Paloma in Venice. Neroni’s restaurant group, Jaybird Hospitality, refreshed the space with a new exterior mural painted by the chef and designed an all-day menu with breakfast, raw bar selections, salads, and more. Paloma opened in October 2022 serving California Mediterranean fare by Madeo veteran chef Raul Cerritos. Neroni’s slate of new dishes, which debuted on July 3, includes rigatoni beef sugo, grilled branzino, Nantucket bay scallops served on the half shell, mushroom pizza, and street corn made with an English pea hummus, roasted garlic, green Thai curry, pistachios, and wasabi peas. To accompany the food menu are new cocktails and wines from sommelier Rachel Binder." - Mona Holmes
