In February we learned that Barnes & Noble, like Häagen-Dazs, would be returning to downtown Walnut Creek, and the window coverings now proudly state “opening summer 2022!”. What’s old is new again, I suppose. And life goes on…

Interesting to see something besides an eatery moving into the former American Kitchen spot as Kimberley Harrison Interiors takes over this prime Lafayette Circle location.

After an almost 10 year absence in downtown Walnut Creek, the American ice cream store Häagen-Dazs has reopened at Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek. Check out the shop menu here. This is the same spot where Godiva served their decadent soft serve ice cream. Which do you prefer?

Brioche de Paris opened a couple of years ago in downtown Walnut Creek, and they are expanding where Subway used to be, next door, where Brioche de Paris Patisserie will be located.

Martinez-based Guava Island Eats, which we learned would be coming to downtown Walnut Creek, has now opened. Check out the Walnut Creek menu here. I tried the fruit cup with cucumber, jicama, pineapple, strawberry, watermelon and chamoy sauce and it was quite tasty.

Thanks to a reader for sending word that RITUALS, which opened in 2018, is closing at Broadway Plaza in downtown Walnut Creek. March 27th is their last day, and when I stopped by over the weekend, everything was 50% off.

Yesterday, I highlighted Liquid Death, a hipster, canned water on sale at Whole Foods. These days my favorite drink is seltzer, made at home using a SodaStream machine, despite its slightly negative effect on health due to its acidity. What is you favorite drink?
If calories were of no concern, then my favorite drink would have to be the wonderfully refreshing egg cream soda.
I don’t know what it is about the drinks I find at Whole Foods, but the latest drink that exudes ironic hipster craziness has got to be Liquid Death.
