Houston, Texas · est. whenever the coffee's on
The cafe that lives
in a kitchen.
Not a restaurant — better. One chef, one griddle, a standing policy of butter, and a table that seats family, friends, and the occasional lucky guest. The menu below is the draft board; it changes with the chef's mood and the farmers market.
Read the boardHouse Rules
- Butter is a beverage. Legally it isn't, but in spirit.
- Nobody leaves hungry. The kitchen physically cannot allow it.
- Carbs aren't banned for guests. They're just not cooked here. BYO-bun at your own social risk.
- Compliments to the chef are accepted in the form of doing the dishes.
