- <p> Coppola makes wine, Lasorda pitches spaghetti sauce. Now
- Giorgio Armani is opening a trattoria in Costa Mesa, Calif.
- Watch for Danny DeVito's zabaglione.

- <p> ON THE SET
- </p>
- <p> Last year it was Mafia movies. Next year comes a grittier
- crop of organized-crime films focused on Chicano street gangs
- in L.A. Films about Chinatown mobs like the Ghost Shadows can't
- be far behind. Keep your head down.

- <p> PERSONALS
- </p>
- <p> It's enough to make you miss lines like "Come here often?"
- The newest cool come-on in the Southland is "I'm gonna treat
- you so well, I'm gonna wish you were me." Save money: buy a
- mirror.

- <p> UNWELCOME VISITORS
- </p>
- <p> Jerry Brown headed up to Washington State last month to
- campaign hard for the term-limitation proposal. But the locals,
- many of them irked by the outside pressure, firmly voted it
- down. It's an engraved invitation, Jer: Stay home.
- </p>
- <p> DIAL ANXIETY
- </p>
- <p> New area codes are triggering identity crises. Onetime
- 415s in the east Bay Area feel disconnected as 510 holders. In
- L.A. former 213s in Beverly Hills suffer from haut insecurity
- with their new 310s. Look for a shift in real estate values.

- <p> GRIDLOCK CHIC
- </p>
- <p> Car phones no longer impress unless you have three lines.
- Honchos send faxes from the freeway. Watch for power wheels
- sporting satellite dishes.
