      3200 South Shepherd Dr

      There is a website and Instagram for Chocolotta. Chocolotta is a new chocolate and dessert shop coming to 3200 S Shepherd Dr. It's a new venture from the original founders of The Chocolate Bar. Based on an Instagram post, it seems the offerings may be similar to the owner's previous shop. There will chocolate, candies, desserts, and ice cream on the menu. https://www.chocolotta.com https://www.instagram.com/chocolottatx

      Last month, What Now Houston published an article regarding Chocolotta's forthcoming storefront at 3200 S Shepherd Dr. The article notes the shop's architectural barriers project filing (TDLR filing.) According to What Now Houston, Tino Ramirez and Gilbert Johnson are involved with Chocolotta. The two were the original co-owners of The Chocolate Bar, which was located at 1835 W Alabama St and 2521 University Blvd. What Now Houston doesn't offer further details beyond what's provided in the filing. https://whatnowhou.com/chocolotta-banking-on-sweet-success/
