A new Peruvian restaurant called Lima is set to to open this October where Mi Pizza used to be in Todos Santos Plaza in Concord. Another Peruvian restaurant, Parada, opened last year so it looks like Peruvian fare is becoming more and more popular. According to Lima’s website, the executive chef, John Marquez, who was born in Peru, was sous chef for “Daniel Patterson at his restaurant at that time, Elisabeth Daniel,” followed later with stints working for Thomas Keller at both French Laundry and Per Se in New York as well as “Executive Chef at the acclaimed Fringale Restaurant in San Francisco”.

Sunvalley Shopping Center, Concord
The food court in Sunvalley Shopping Center in Concord reopened recently and right nearby one can see the giant signs for Round 1 Bowling & Amusement. According to the Round One’s Sunvalley employment page, there will be video games, bowling, and karaoke. Sounds fun! Based on the alcoholic beverage sign above it looks like they will also offer beer and food.
Although the sign says “opening summer 2016” when I peeked inside it didn’t look close to being done.

Next month you’ll be able to enjoy beer and wine along with burgers and other dishes while watching a movie at Brenden Theatres in Concord as a redesigned dining area near the entrance opens. According to an employee, look for around six or seven beers plus around six more on tap as well as wine and various food items eventually including burgers that you can eat there or better yet, bring with you to enjoy while watching a movie. Note that this doesn’t apply to “G” rated movies.
