Celebrity chef Michael Chiarello was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of driving under the influence and possessing drugs while driving his Porsche in Napa County, officials said. The 54-year-old Emmy Award-winning chef told the officer he was driving from Yountville, where his eatery, Bottega Ristorante, is located. At some point during the stop, Renspurger determined Chiarello was under the influence. Chiarello was taken into custody and booked on suspicion of DUI and possessing a controlled substance, Renspurger said. Page and Sever also filed another lawsuit the same month against Chiarello and restaurant group Gruppo Chiarello, claiming a failure to pay their wages.
