Recently a new store opened up on Broadway Plaza called Cornology. According to their website:

We bring in the finest kernels the Midwest has to offer. We take those kernels and pop them fresh throughout the day. Then we entice our customers even further by mixing our creations with only the freshest and finest gourmet ingredients that makes Cornology unique and very different.

This is probably one of the more unique stores on Broadway Plaza. Quite a few dessert-related stores have tried to make it at that location and failed, so let’s hope this one can pull through. I’ve had it and liked it a lot. It’s located at 1288 Broadway Plaza right near Macy’s.

Pho Huyn Hiep 6, AKA Kevin’s Noodle House, is a Vietnamese restaurant being built at the Pringle Ave. and N. Main St. intersection near Ygnacio Valley Rd. It’s a small chain with a few other locations including Concord and will be open December 10th. Has anyone been to the Concord location?

Diablo Magazine reports that Citra Grill will be taking over the Diva boutique at the corner of Locust and Olympic Blvd, across the street from the movie theater. They write:

It’s an interesting concept from first-time restaurant owner Ramin Behtash, a longtime high-tech veteran from Silicon Valley. Behtash plans to have five centerpiece items on the menu—halibut, shrimp, chicken, steak, and vegetables—that will be flame grilled on bamboo skewers and served on fresh-baked bread.

The public notice of application to sell alcoholic beverages was posted prominently.
