Boba tea is not the only thing available at Mr. Green Bubble in downtown Walnut Creek. These ice cream macarons sure do look tempting especially as summer rolls around!

Salvio Pacheco Square, Concord
A new Asian fusion restaurant called Fusion Bistro is opening soon in Salvio Pacheco Square across from Todos Santos Plaza in Concord. This corner sport has been empty for as long as I remember so it’s good to finally see something opening up there. As you can see from the inside photo it looks finished to me. Check for updates on their Facebook page here.
2090 Diamond Blvd, Concord
A new fitness gym called Just 40 Fitness is coming to the Concord shopping center where Buffalo Wild Wings is located on Diamond Blvd. across the street from where the new Veranda shopping center will be. They will also be opening in Pleasant Hill next to T.J. Maxx.
