A Local Favorite Closes After 33 Years

Good Morning Tri-Valley! Not to scare you, but there are only 45 days until Christmas! Yikes!

Bollywood Pizza Opens in Livermore November 13!

There are two things that go really well together - Pizza and Indian food! So when I heard Bollywood Pizza was opening in Livermore on November 13, I got pretty excited!

And it's literally a five-minute drive from my house. Even better!

Bollywood Pizza already has locations in San Francisco and Sacramento, and they're celebrating their first Tri-Valley location with 50% off all orders on opening day!

Their menu is huge, combining bold Indian flavors with traditional pizza favorites, pastas, wings, and desserts.

I've already been checking out the menu, and here's what I can't wait to try:

They also offer halal options, vegan pizzas, and a colorful dining room filled with Bollywood-inspired murals. And I definitely need a thick, ice-cold mango lassi to go with all that delicious food!

Doors open Friday, November 13 at 10am, with 50% off all orders that day - including dine-in and take out!

I hope to see you there!

Your Next Group Event? Take It Under Par!

My husband is absolutely hooked on Under Par Golf Club in Pleasanton! He loves going there, and I can see why. It's such a fun way to enjoy golf without spending half your day on a course.

And here's something you might not know. Under Par is also a great spot for corporate events, holiday parties, and group celebrations!

They have four state-of-the-art Trackman iO simulator bays with over 500 courses, and you don't have to be a golfer to have a great time!

Groups can compete in closest-to-the-pin challenges, longest drive contests, or even a nine-hole scramble. They'll help you choose the right format, provide loaner clubs, and coordinate food and drinks. You can even bring your own!

No weather worries, no dress code, and plenty of friendly competition.

Planning a holiday party? December dates fill up early, so now's the time to book!

Between gifts, celebrations, and everything else that comes with the season, an UNCLE Holiday Personal Loan can help make holiday spending more manageable with affordable monthly payments.

It's one way to cover those extra seasonal expenses so you can focus on what matters most: enjoying the holidays with family and friends.
