A replacement for Wolfgang Puck's Jai, which shuttered last summer at the La Jolla Playhouse, has been announced. Chef James Holder will launch James' Place in May in conjunction with the start of the theater's 2014/15 season. A master sushi chef who helped to open Cafe Japengo, Holder plans to serve sushi and seasonal dishes featuring beef and local seafood. James' Place will offer pre-show dining as well as lunch, happy hour and late-night dining for UC San Diego students. [U-T, EaterWire]
