Despite the merchants grumblings reported earlier today, more restaurants are continuing to pop up on Valencia Street. The latest to hit the scene? Curry Up Now. The food truck famous for its tikka masala burritos plans to open its first brick and mortar San Francisco location in the old Pizzeria spot on 18th and Valencia. This is the second of three Curry Up Now locations; the first opened in Palo Alto last spring and owner Akash Kapoor hopes to open a third spot in SF in early 2013. The Valencia Street restaurant will begin service in mid-January with a beer and wine license and 60-70 seats. [Scoop, Earlier]
