Which Fresno restaurants are closed or under new owners? Some have changed focus
The Enchanted Pour opened its upstairs speakeasy, Sin and Satin, in Fresno’s Tower District at the beginning of June. Five months later, the speakeasy announced it was closing, with its last day on Nov. 18. It’s one of several Central Valley restaurants and food or drink operations that have closed, are closing or have switched hands over the last few weeks. Under new ownership Doll’s Kitchen , a Fresno soul food brand that operates a food truck outside the Chevron at 5566 E. Kings Canyon Rd., announced Oct. 21 that the business acquired Rhapsody’s Restaurant , a soul food restaurant. Rhapsody’s Restaurant opened at 3209 W. Shaw Ave., Ste. 105, in September 2020.

Kim Stephens' son joins KMPH's Great Day + other changes at Fresno TV newsrooms
Finnley Pendergast may be new to KMPH’s TV newsroom , but he has some history with the station and its Great Day morning show. His mother, Kim Stephens, has co-hosted the newscast since its inception in 2003, playing counterpart to its well-known weatherman Kopi Sotiropulous. Pendergast grew up visiting her on set. “It was kind of boring then,” says the 22-year-old Fresno State graduate, who just last week joined the station as morning reporter and multimedia journalist. “I was just a kid.” But looking across the newsroom and seeing his mother behind the anchor desk, it hits different now that the pair are working together, he says. “It’s a really cool experience for both of us.” This is Pendergast’s first gig since graduating from Fresno State, where he helped produced a weekly newscast and anchor weather segments for the school’s student newscast. He also worked on the university’s newspaper as sports editor and as a staff reporter.

The North Fork Mono Casino and Resort near Avenue 18 in Madera is betting big on its restaurants, which ring the gaming floor and range from a quick taco stop to a white-tablecloth steakhouse with hundreds of wines. A few of the names will be familiar to Fresno diners. Others are brand new. Here’s a rundown of where to eat the next time you’re up there — or the next time hunger alone is reason enough to go.

Named after a tree that grows in the Sierra foothills, Manzanita is going for fine dining that doesn’t feel stuffy. “Our focus is to also make those luxury options affordable because we want anyone and everyone to feel welcome here,” general manager Connor Jessop said. Expect prime steaks, seafood and — according to Jessop — hundreds of unique wine offerings. The man in the kitchen is chef
