Authentic Latin American cuisine will be featured at the Terraza Waterfront Cafe under construction at 1950 Bellerive Lane (just west of Le Peep Cafe) in Riverstone.

The exhibition kitchen will boast Southern Mexico and Central American dishes with fresh fruits and vegetables, fish and grilled meats. Beverages will include signature cocktails, locally brewed beers and wines from South America, Spain and the Pacific Northwest.

"Terraza" means "terrace" as the place will feature a large deck above the Spokane River and inside tables that will combine to sit 110 customers.

Owner Doug Johnson and General Manager Frank Cruz-Aedo plan to open the place this spring for lunch and dinner daily and brunch on weekends. Check www.terrazacda.com.

Ventura Stone opens on Northwest Blvd.

A kitchen countertop showroom filled with large full-size slab displays fills the huge building of Ventura Stone at 1515 Northwest Blvd.

The place opened last week in the former Olinger Marine showroom with displays featuring cambria, silestone, dekton and caesarstone. Owner Brian Barrios offers in-house fabrication, quality installation and warranties with competitive pricing.

Hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays by appointment. Phone 208-930-0700. Check www.venturastone.com.

Neighbors-N-Need opening in Post Falls

The sensory play center is equipped with indoor hammock swings, sensory pods, an indoor trampoline, multiple sensory bins, interactive tables and a calming room.

Beneficial to children on the autism spectrum or struggling with sensory processing disorders, sensory play builds nerve connections in the brain, supports language development and encourages problem solving and scientific thinking.
