Restaurateur Gabe Stulman tells Eater that his new Italian restaurant Perla is now open in the old Bellavitae space at 24 Minetta Lane in the Village. The chef is Michael Toscano, formerly of Manzo and Babbo, and Gramercy Tavern vet Jen Sgobbo is in charge of the wine. Expect a menu of elevated traditional Italian fare, and a relaxed, neighborhood vibe. Stay tuned for photos of the space, and more details on the food. [EaterWire]
