LA matcha, gelato chain opens anticipated first Central Valley space in Clovis
To get something from Matsu Matcha , Central Valley residents previously had to travel hours to one of the brand’s several Los Angeles locations. As of Sunday, they just need to drive to Clovis . Matsu Matcha, an LA-based matcha chain with locations in Little Tokyo and Koreatown, opened its first Central Valley location at 1195 Herndon Ave., Unit 102. The grand opening came months after signs first went up, and the new shop created more excitement by running several contests on Instagram and Facebook. Together, it meant the first few days were extremely busy, with lines out the door even as the drinks and gelato came out at a quick pace. Several items on the menu were already sold out, and Mackenzy Yang, the manager of Matsu Matcha, said that it was all hands on deck to deal with the level of demand. “Every employee has been running around the whole time,” Yang said. There are no cashiers in the shop; instead, there are two ordering screens where people can choose what drink (or dessert) they want, the level of sweetness and any extras they might want to include, like matcha jelly. Employees behind the counter hand out samples

What’s behind the construction the barricades near McDonald’s at Clovis and Shaw avenues? Construction vehicles are digging up dirt for the next new chain coffee drive-thru. It’s not a Dutch Bros, not a Starbucks, but a 7 Brew Drive Thru Coffee . It’s a drive-thru-only coffee spot at the southwest corner, built in an empty parking lot between McDonald’s and El Pollo Loco. Its Clovis location will be one of the first in California. The Arkansas-based company has been exploding with new locations across the Southwest, particularly in Texas and Arizona. It has more than 900 locations in 38 states. The Clovis location will be 910 square feet with a double drive-thru lane that can hold up to 13 cars, according to a permit approved by the Clovis Planning Commission. Employees walk out to cars to take orders and deliver drinks to keep the line moving. It will have outdoor seating, but no indoor seating. If the construction process is anything like the location in the works for Visalia , a small prefabricated building will be lifted into place by a crane . So what is 7 Brew?

Where in Fresno is your favorite food truck today? A new app can help you find it and others
Kevin Rios owns a grocery store , a moving company and Tacos Los Costeños , a taco truck parked at the intersection of Cedar and Gettysburg. About a year ago, he set his sights on developing something new: an application dedicated to connecting food trucks, food creators and anyone who gets hungry. “We’re all growing here,” Rios said. “It’s not just for vendors, it’s not just for creators, it’s not just for customers. Everybody wins.” The app, Foodtruck Finder , is now in closed beta, and expects to open to the public in about a month’s time. Rios has had the idea for creating a food truck app, where he’d combine features from Google, Yelp, Instagram and DoorDash into one place, for about five years now. In the Foodtruck Finder app, people will not only be able to tell where their favorite food trucks are, they’ll be able to see any foodie events coming up, order from those trucks for pick-up, leave reviews on both a food truck and specific dishes they make. “You go to a restaurant and it’s 3.5 stars,” Rios said. “Why? Was it the food, the service?” Users can ask the app to choose a new
