Bristow Beat received email yesterday alerting us to a posting by Facebook page Virginia Gateway, which advertised a new dessert drink being offered by California-style pizza restaurant California Pizza Kitchen.
The problem: California Pizza Kitchen is not a tenant at Virginia Gateway nor has it been formally announced as a tenant at the new Promenade at Virginia Gateway.
However, speculation ran rampant on social media that the Southern California-based restaurant chain will come to Gainesville.
"Does this mean it's coming to the Promenade?" one resident posted.
California Pizza Kitchen maintains a location at Fairfax Corner, which was also developed by the Peterson Companies.
The signing of California Pizza Kitchen as a tenant has not been formally confirmed by either the developer or the chain's corporate headquarters. The Peterson Companies removed the suspicious post after several hours.
California Pizza Kitchen has approximately 230 locations throughout the country. The company features unique pizza creations, salads, soups and sandwiches.
