I noticed this sign near the Walnut Creek library which touts Walnut Creek’s first cycle-track that is “physically separated from traffic and distinct from sidewalks and pedestrian zones.” Has anyone ridden this? What do you think?

In the spring we learned that the Brazilian steakhouse Galpao Gaucho would be coming to downtown Walnut Creek where Momo’s used to be and they’re now open. The inside looks great and they kept the Big Ass Fan! Check out their Walnut Creek menu here.
From their website:
Our menu is inspired by the Gaucho culture and the authentic dining tradition of the Brazilian cowboy – grilled meats and fresh salads. With 17 different cuts of meats, ranging from beef, pork, chicken, lamb, and fish, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Hearts of palm, artichoke hearts, sweet beets, asparagus, imported cheeses, and cured meats are only some of almost 40 items that our gourmet salad bar offers.

I can’t believe I’m writing this but Corners Tavern is closing in downtown Walnut Creek with their last day being Wednesday, July 10th. It was one of the first restaurants I previewed on this blog over seven years ago and enjoyed many meals here with my family over the years. Sad to see them go! 😢
Newell Promenade, Walnut Creek
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the Vietnamese restaurant Pho Saigon closed recently at Newell Promenade in downtown Walnut Creek. Thanks to a reader for sending word about this. I imagine the remodeling going on there hasn’t helped, right?
