It’s been weeks since the downtown Walnut Creek Greek restaurant Pomegranate has been open due to, “staff training”. I remember how proud the previous owner was about their pomegranate trees in front of the restaurant. I know there is a new owner but how much longer do we have to wait for this to reopen?

It’s been over a year since we first learned about Tozai Izakaya opening in downtown Walnut Creek and the wait will soon be over as they soft open next Thursday on January 3rd. Compared to Ramen Hiroshi (same owners), this spot is way more spacious. Considering how much I enjoy the ramen there (especially in the East Bay), I can’t wait to try the food here as well!

Last week we learned that Torsap Thai Kitchen would be opening in downtown Walnut Creek where Sunol Ridge used to be and they have now opened. The warm yet modern looking inside feels amazing and with a menu designed by San Francisco-based chef Lalita Souksamlane (see menu here) I look forward to trying these dishes out! Check out more photos below including an amazing gold-leaf embellished mural in front. Note that they plan to serve beer from the taps left over from Sunol Ridge which won’t be available until they get their ABC state license.
