The permit appears to be filed by Sino Yan Hospitality, a new restaurant group from chef Andrew Musico. It's likely the permit is for a brick-and-mortar location of Musico's The Fattest Cow or his other concept, Chikahan.

There is so much wrong with this article from Chron.com. First, the author acknowledges Maine-ly Sandwiches operated other restaurants, noting owner Buddy Charity, "attempted to expand to Greenspoint and Cy-Fair, but those closed as well." Maine-ly Sandwiches' original location on South Shepherd Dr is also mentioned. Still, Chron.com reports this as the restaurant's second location. It's not. There were other locations not mentioned that Maine-ly Sandwiches opened. Second of all, the article is written in a way that makes it seems Maine-ly Sandwiches is now only opening its location at The Shops at Sawyer Yards. It's misleading. The restaurant has been open for months. Yet there is no mention of it in the article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there are currently two locations, then saying "second" location is correct. Just because it's not the second ever location does not mean it's not a second location. When McDonald's opens it's 100,000th location, it counts active locations, not every location that has ever opened and closed. The second criticism is inconsequential. It's a feature article, not breaking news. They get written ahead of time, and are bumped or postponed — sometimes repeatedly — by more interesting content. Sometimes a features reporter will write a bunch of stories all at once and they get scheduled to run in the future to cover times when they're on vacation or otherwise unavailable. It's called "evergreen." Overall, "so much" nitpicking about nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's usually over the most absurd things. And if I'm not mistaken, you have nitpicked about errors in Houston Chronicle and Chron.com articles too. So, pot meet kettle. My point was valid and was made clear enough. The article, like a number of articles from the Chronicle and its paywall-free site, had errors pertaining to the business discussed.

Thanks for posting. @Urbannizer @Triton or other mods, 2500 Summer St is part of the Sawyer Yards campus. Hopefully, you all will consider merging this with the existing topic for Sawyer Yards where other businesses at the same address are discussed there: https://www.houstonarchitecture.com/haif/topic/31131-sawyer-yards-developments/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntheKnowHouston Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) Buffalo Bayou Brewing Company is no longer operating at Sawyer Yards. A lockout notice is posted on the grounds of the local brewery. In a CultureMap article published today, the lockout is due to "non-payment of rent." Buffalo Bayou Brewing Company operated at 2101 Summer St. Additional details from the article: Sawyer Yards owner Jon Deal served Buffalo Bayou CEO William McLucas with a notice of default at noon. Via that document, he terminated the brewery’s lease on its building at 2101 Summer St. https://houston.culturemap.com/news/restaurants-bars/buffalo-bayou-brewing-closed-sawyer-yards-1/ Edited January 27 by IntheKnowHouston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although The Stand's listed address on the architectural barriers project filing is 2500 Summer St, Suite 1110-A, that may not be accurate. As @hindesky points out in his above post, Triple Tap Ventures is located at that address. The company is the Texas licensee of the California-based casual restaurant chain. However, The Stand may not be leasing a unit on the Sawyer Yards campus. More than likely, The Stand will be one of the new additions to Lower Heights District. Yes, the shopping center is listed on the filing, but the address is not associated with Lower Heights District. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The brew is from Houston's Gulf Coast Distillers / Giant Texas Distillers. I don't know if this will be a production facility only. There is always the possibility the distiller could include a tasting room and kitchen. Perhaps Gulf Coast Distillers will announce their plans for 2101 Summer St soon. https://tejasbeer.com/ https://www.instagram.com/tejasbeer/ Edited Wednesday at 10:39 AM by IntheKnowHouston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
