Diablo Dish recently reported that a new casual, Asian restaurant called BZ Grill Asian Kitchen has opened in the Danville Livery. As you can see on the wall menu below (click to enlarge), step 1 is to choose a protein (grill or wok style), and step 2 is to choose a base like rice, noodles or salad. Each box comes with “Korean style broccoli, bean sprouts, pickled veggies & Asian slaw”.

Last month I noted that the vintage collective and DIY workshop The Bloom Space would be relocating from Lafayette to downtown Danville and they reopened this month on Hartz Ave.
3587 Mt Diablo Blvd, Lafayette
The downtown Lafayette women’s boutique Duchess is relocating to 408 Hartz Ave. in Danville sometime next week. Their lease expired after six years at this Lafayette location. Check out their Facebook page here.
From their newsletter:
I have a new little joy coming into my life with a due date set for August. This relocation factors him into my life as well; because by moving Duchess to Danville I will be going home, of sorts. I was raised and lived in Danville for the majority of my life and fortunately for me my parents and family all still reside there. I have heard it takes a village to raise a child and that village for now is in Danville. The lease at our current location has expired and while I searched to find the right place in order to keep Duchess in Lafayette, it just didn’t work out.

The restaurant Sideboard in Danville has relocated from their Hartz Ave. location to a converted house on Railroad Ave. a few blocks a way in downtown Danville. The entry is on the side of the house and there is an outdoor patio in back with additional seating in a different building behind that. Diablo Dish has more about the opening here. I really want to try this place out, any recommended dishes?

I’ve seen plenty of toy cars, jeeps and wagons but this is the first children’s plane I’ve encountered. Spotted in front of the children’s consignment store Snickerdoodles in Danville. How cool is this?!
