Two Swiss Apartment Block Fires Leave Five Missing, 19 Injured: Police
- A fire erupted at Lettuce Restaurant on Wednesday morning as staff prepared for the lunchtime rush, causing significant interior damage to the popular downtown establishment near City Hall.
- Opened by the late executive chef Bahman Tehrani, the establishment operated for nearly 20 years as a popular destination, drawing downtown workers and patrons attending shows at the nearby Lesher Center.
- Inside the building, blackened walls reveal the fire's severity, while charred tables and chairs now fill a fenced-off parking lot on Locust Street, where the glass-front counter partially collapsed.
- Contra Costa Fire Protection District public information officer Lauren Otto confirmed the one-alarm blaze caused no injuries to anyone in the building, though the cause remains under investigation.
- Extensive structural damage suggests Lettuce Restaurant will remain closed for some time, and efforts to reach the current owner regarding recovery plans were unsuccessful on Thursday.
