Alfredo Colle, former personal chef of director Francis Ford Coppola, is the new executive chef at Nella Pizzeria Napoletana, the restaurant tells us. Though the eponymous Nella has been gone for some months, the new marquee name seems unlikely to make too many changes. “I did the culinary, more upscale, fine-dining restaurants,” Colle says in a press release. “but Nella’s is really the epitome of what I love to do. A simple yet delicious concept with a laid back, casual atmosphere where you can have a little fun, make your customers feel comfortable like they know you, and serve good, authentic food.”
