Thanks to everyone who sent word that something’s going on at the Indian restaurant Kanishka’s Gastropub that opened almost four years ago in downtown Walnut Creek. Their storefront is papered over and OpenTable reservation page notes that, “Unfortunately, this restaurant is not on the OpenTable reservation network.” Their last Instagram photo says:

Kanishka’s Gastropub will be closed for Thanksgiving holidays this week! I believe whatever happens for a reason in life! Not everything is a sweet spice of pumpkin pie however there is something to look forward to! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and I am thankful to many many things in life! – Paramita Roy

It’s hard to imagine that a little over a year ago downtown Walnut Creek had exactly ZERO boba cafes and now there are four. The first boba cafe to open downtown was Mr. Green Bubble and they are celebrating their one year anniversary with $1.99 drinks this Sunday, Dec. 3rd all day. “Smoothies, juices and snacks are 20% off while supplies last”.

Over the summer we learned that Napa-based Bounty Hunter Rare Wines & Spirits & Smokin’ BBQ would be opening a restaurant and shop called Bounty Hunter Food.Wine.Spirits. and the “opening 2018” signage is up. Note that previously the expected opening date was “March, 2018” so hopefully it’ll open the first half of 2018. Check out their Napa menu here and their wine shop selections here.
