Are you searching for conventional flavors with a Japanese flare, a surprising lounge with a reside DJ, bowling lanes, unique hookah, a nightclub, and bottomless J. Harden Wine prosecco multi functional handy, elegant one-stop store? Nicely look no additional than 13 Houston, James Harden’s new restaurant enterprise.
As the one wine critic daring sufficient to evaluation/ingest the J. Harden cab sav, there may be nothing I need greater than to take a seat right down to a tasting menu of the Beard’s Far East-inspired delicacies.
I imply, simply take a look at this description from the web site:
“13 Houston cleverly blends conventional flavors with a Japanese flare, elevated eating, and a good time into one. From our state-of-the-art restaurant and patio, to our gorgeous lounge with a reside DJ, unique hookah, and modern libations, 13 is bound to please. We additionally supply a one-of-a-kind Evening Membership higher often called ‘The Basement’ with spacious sections and a personal space with a two-lane bowling alley and personal bar. We’ve taken the idea of elevated eating and made it our personal; #TheThirteenExperience.”
Pointless semicolon apart, the factor I like to do when taking a look at celebrity-endorsed eating places is guess which dishes the namesake calls for. On this case, it’s undoubtedly the 13 wings, which truly are available in an order of six, smothered in jerk sauce, jerk seasoning and pineapple pico. (There are zero different Caribbean flavors on the menu however I digress.) The opposite is the Millionaire’s Sando: Braised beef, Hudson Valley seared foie gras, shokupam, truffle mayo, caviar, and shaved black truffles.
The wings stood out like a zebra in a corral stuffed with sizzling apps. Dumplings, dumplings, bao buns, wings? Oh, I do know this one. I’ve performed “Which one isn’t like the opposite” earlier than.
The Millionaire’s Sando was solely barely harder. It’s a kind of dishes that upscale restaurant house owners toss on the menu for the sake of extra. Suppose the Michael Scott loaded pretzel of fine-dining experiences. I’m truthfully type of shocked lobster wasn’t shoehorned in there.
As a lot as I’d prefer to opine on the environment, I can’t as a result of I don’t understand how shut the reside DJ and unique hookah are to the eating space. Nothing says class like a pleasant salmon tiradito accompanied by flavored hookah smoke and home music. I assume G/O Media will simply should ship me right down to Houston for the complete #ThirteenExperience.
