Biggest Little Show: After humbling beginnings, Kenji's thriving in permanent home
Reno-based Kenji's started as a Hawaiian-style food truck named after the son of the husband-wife duo Joe Najera and Keliana Saffery. At the time, Kenji was just 1 year old.

Reno’s first Paris Baguette to hold soft opening later this month
This story was updated to add new information about the soft opening date. Reno-Sparks residents can finally say bonjour to the area’s first Paris Baguette. The popular bakery chain will hold a soft opening on Thursday, Nov. 19, one day earlier than initially planned, co-franchisee Jim Yoell told the Reno Gazette Journal.

Both had to deal with challenges from finding potential locations that Paris Baguette approved to being blocked by competitors at some of the locations they considered. The Yoells ultimately picked a retail center on the busy corner of Longley Lane and South McCarran Boulevard known as McCarran Marketplace — formerly the Air Center Plaza. The permit for the location was approved last year but remodeling took a long time as the bakery converted two stores into its new space. “That just happens when you convert two suites into (one that’s) 6,200 square feet,” Yoell told the Reno Gazette Journal during a visit to the space in August. Staff also had to undergo training and the new location had to pass multiple inspections. Founded in South
