Sarku Japan, a popular Janpanese restaurant known for its teriyaki chicken, is now open at Vintage Faire Mall in Modesto. It’s the third location in the Central Valley, along with Fresno and Visalia, and the 16th location in California. CEO Jon Gilliam expressed enthusiasm for the new location at a ceremony held Friday. He was introduced by Trish Christensen, president and CEO of the Modesto Chamber of Commerce, with remarks from city council members Jeremiah Williams and Rosa Escutia-Braaton before they cut the ribbon to officially open the store Operating primarily in malls, the fresh-quick Japanese restaurant started in 1987 by four businessmen who wanted to bring Japanese teppanyaki cooking to the United States. The first location opened in Boston, drawing customers in with teriyaki chicken samples on a toothpick. Since that time, the company has expanded to over 240 restaurants worldwide. The Modesto location employs around 20 people. In his speech, Gilliam touted their commitment to fresh food and ingredients.

Turlock's Dot-Marie Jones ‘linchpin' in horror film. What she said, how to watch

Get the Eat. Sip. Play. newsletter in your inbox Available now: Sign up here for the best food, drink and entertainment coverage in Stanislaus County. Dot-Marie Jones’ performance in the indie-horror film “Breeder” has garnered attention for the local actress. Called “the film’s linchpin” in an online review on seattlerefined.com , the Turlock/Hilmar native Jones plays Patti, who breeds poodles. But Patti has become obsessed with merging “the DNA of two promising young people to create perfection which she then plans to sell on the black market,” the review says. “It’s dark and demented, though the catch is announced from the jump. Her irksome, icky pursuit is not nearly as upsetting as the means by which she seeks to achieve it.” In a Q&A story on phantasmag.com , Jones said she loved that the film was different. “It was cringey. It was a perfect horror film, but also a thriller. That kind of opportunity doesn’t come around that often, and the cast and crew were fantastic,” she said. When asked in the story about her performance being compared to that of Kathy Bates in “Misery,” Jones answered “That’s ridiculous, but it’s such an (honor) to be compared to Kathy. I

Tractor Supply Co. on probation in California after pesticide dealing violations

California’s Department of Pesticide Regulation is placing Tractor Supply Co. on a five-year probation after repeated violations of its pesticide dealing and sales policies for years. Of the Tennessee-based company’s 99 California locations, the state said 65 were cited by county agricultural commissioners for pesticide compliance issues between Jan. 1, 2023, through June 30, 2025. Tractor Supply Co. violated state pesticide enforcement regulations such as selling restricted material pesticide products without requesting a permit, license or certification information from buyers and selling pesticide products without a dealer license. Restricted pesticides are products that are hazardous to public health, farmworkers, the environment and wildlife. The company also completed 123 sales of unregistered products, a Department of Pesticide Regulation review of sales from April 2022 to April 2026 found. “Californians deserve a marketplace where every seller plays by the rules,” department director Karen Morrison said in a Friday news release. “When companies cut corners, it puts our communities at risk and undermines businesses that follow the law.” The agricultural commissioner citations were mostly resolved, the state said, with Tractor Supply Co’s $5.1 million settlement agreement with five California counties in September. The settlement followed a complaint filed on behalf of the five

San Joaquin County girls volleyball CIF State first-round schedule

No CIF Sac-Joaquin Section championship trophies are coming home with San Joaquin County's girls volleyball teams this year. But that hardly tells the whole story. Four teams reached the section semifinals. One made it all the way to the championship match, took a 2-0 lead and came within a set of winning it all before falling in five . And here's the good news. Their seasons aren't over . All four now have an opportunity to chase something even bigger . A CIF State championship. Start with Ripon. The Indians had already secured their fourth straight league championship and 50th consecutive Tri-Valley League victory before entering the section Division III playoffs as the No. 1 seed. They breezed through the first three rounds, only to watch a two-set championship lead slip away against Nevada Union. Heartbreaking? Absolutely. But the Indians aren't finished. Ripon earned the No. 3 seed in the CIF State Division III tournament. Then there's St. Mary's. Another Tri-City Athletic League championship. Seventy-nine consecutive league victories. And a No. 3 seed in the section's Division I bracket. The Rams' run ended in the semifinals against Rocklin, ranked No. 11 in California by MaxPreps. Yet that defeat may have
