Located at 2712 Eldridge Parkway in Suite 103, the idea stems from Tadrick Tezeno, who says he’s loved cooking since he was five years old.

“I was going to school and working nights at a local industrial plant, and I saw how there wasn’t any great food options outside the norm, and saw a market waiting to be cornered,” Tezeno told FOX 26 News.

“Houston is one of the biggest cities in the nation, and a lot of our staples like Astroworld have come and gone. For a while, I felt we as a city lost an identity, or should I say from a tourist’s standpoint, a major attraction, so with me trying to fill the void somehow, what’s a bigger attraction to any city than great food?” Tezeno said.
