A few years ago we learned that Hiro Sushi opened in downtown Walnut Creek where C U Sushi used to be and according to a public notice a new sushi joint called Andy Sushi will be taking over. As you can see it has been painted red and according to this Craigslist post, they are planning to open, “late August/early September” and are hiring.
From the post:
We are a family owned restaurant seeking people who are enthusiastic, organized, and excited about the restaurant opening. Our goal is to create a welcoming atmosphere for customers and of course, delicious japanese food.

I cannot decide between going with MCE clean Energy or staying with PG&E. The rates are very similar. In addition, I also have solar panels on my roof. The automatic MCE 50% option goes into effect on September 12. See link below. Do you have any recommendations or comments?
