sonic0boom Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 My wife and I drove by around 5:30 to see if they were open for dinner, but we couldn't really tell if anything was open. We saw some cars but thought they were for the employees working the bakery. Any idea where the cafe part is? It's a pretty big building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northwood Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Looking for the Heights store hours, I noticed on their website that they have a place holder for West Ave. location. Assuming this is happening, it is nice to know there will be a reasonably priced food option in West Ave. Awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylejack Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I guess Tycer is focusing his efforts into Kraftsmen since several of his other concepts failed, and the new planned restaurant never got off the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s3mh Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I guess Tycer is focusing his efforts into Kraftsmen since several of his other concepts are failing, and the new planned restaurant never got off the ground.He is supposed to open a Kraftsmen Cafe in the same building as the wholesale bakery on W22nd. Not sure to what extent that space is the same as the now defunct Textile. Kraftsment has talked about having a Cafe in the new West Ave development on Kirby for a few years. Not sure if that is happening or not. Tycer is looking for a location in the Galleria to try for a new restaurant. I think Tycer just can't find a groove like he did with Gravitas. Aries and Textile were pushing too hard to be the uber dinning experience and could not completely live up to the hype. But it is just a matter of time before a new Tycer venture hits the ground.

It was a shock to everyone when Tycer closed it. Aries was a pre- Gravitas.The new location will only have breakfast and lunch and is in the same space where Textile was.

heights_yankee Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Don't forget Pic Café.Pic was what Tycer opened after he stunned people by closing Aries. Pic stunk and it's short lifespan surely showed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyHatch Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 I had lunch at the new Heights location today. It was great! The potato leek soup was out of this world, and it was much less expensive than Lola's. Although the fries at Lola's are my own personal crack.....
