Last October we learned that the Japanese/Korean-style Bonjour Bakery & Cafe would be opening in the Park & Shop in Concord and while they eventually opened for a few days they closed gain to better prepare, not reopening until this month. The inside is spacious and looks quite nice and the baked goods are delicious. They are baked in the back and taste very fresh. Check out their website here. Check out plenty of photos of the inside including the drinks menu and a closeup of the choco manju after the jump.

Perfectly timed for the hot summer, Loard’s Ice Cream is opening across from Todos Santos Park in Concord this week. I dropped by over the weekend and they were planning on soft opening very soon. The inside looks very nice with 3 flat screen TVs embedded throughout the store. There’s a candy section with ice cream pints available in a freezer at back. In addition to the standard Loard’s fare, the owner mentioned that they will be offering house-made ice cream bars etc. for sale using Loard’s ice cream and will also offer an option to print photos directly onto cakes for birthdays and other celebrations. Sounds cool!
