Treadsack’s concepts looking ‘hunky dory’ for summer opening
Mediterranean dishes to turn ‘Black and White’
Contributed Art The new Black & White restuarant at 1001 Studewood Drive will seat more than 200 to enjoy its Mediterranean offerings once it opens later this year.
By Kim Hogstrom For The Leader
Photo by Jonathan Garris Work has steadily continued on Treadsack’s newest restaurant concepts, Hunky Dory and Bernadines, which will offer a British-focused menu and Gulf-inspired seafood, respectively.
Construction continues on Bernadine’s, Hunky Dory By Jonathan Garris jgarris@theleadernews.com It may have been a long time coming, but Treadsack’s newest restaurant pairing at North Shepherd Drive and West 18th is beginning to take shape. The future site of Bernadine’s and Hunky Dory concepts now features the outer shell and foundation laid in
place. A representative with Treadsack said construction is expected to be complete in June, barring any major delays or issues. While the group is still working out menus for the establishment, Hunky Dory will focus on British comfort food with Bernadine’s focusing on seafood like oysters, crab and other Gulf-inspired dishes. Chef Richard Knight will be
What’s your sweet spot? By Betsy Denson betsy@theleadernews.com Leader readers chimed in on their favorite places around town to indulge in a sugar fix. See if yours made the very unscientific top 10. In no particular order: #1 Fat Cat Creamery, 1901 N Shepherd, got a shout out from multiple readers. They offer three year round flavors: Cat’s Meow Mexican Vanilla, Milk Chocolate Stout and Strawberry Buttermilk as well as seasonal offerings. Their Salted Caramel gets rave reviews as does their homemade hot fudge sauce. #2 Red Dessert Dive, 1045 Studewood St., also has a rabid following. “Delicious sweets paired with prosecco, wine, beer or coffee,â€? said Tonia Whitney. “Hands down the best.â€? Christy Bohannon gets their cookie brownies and Allison Newport says the cheesecake is amazing. Lisa Cari notes that the menu changes every week. #3 Empire CafĂŠ, 1732
Westheimer Rd., in between Shepherd and Montrose, draws Brad Anderson in with their half price cake night on Mondays. “The coconut cheesecake is to die for,� said Sonia Tersigne. #4 Liberty Kitchen (Petite Sweets): Liberty Kitchen, 1050 Studewood, gets an assist with their pies and cakes from sister shop Petite Sweets on West Alabama. Ashley Day is a big fan of Petite Sweets’ Cookies & Cream Cake Shakes as well as Lance Fegen’s Raspberry-White Chocolate Bread Pudding. #5: The Fluff Bake Bar inside Revival Market, 550 Heights Blvd., has a fan in Lisa Cari: “Chef Rebecca Masson’s Fluffernutter cookies and Kitchen Sink cookies are amazing.� Masson will be opening her own storefront on West Gray soon but she’ll still offer her wares at Revival. #6: Becks Prime Jessi Heiner can’t get enough of the chocolate malts at Becks, 115 See Sweet, P. 3B

heading up the Hunky Dory kitchen and Graham Laborde will head up Bernadine’s. Both restaurants will share a private dining room; however the two will have their own bar areas and will also share a large wine cellar with hundreds of different wines to choose from. According to the company’s website, preview dinners were also held for both restaurants earlier
this year. Treadsack owns several other familiar restaurants in The Leader area, including Downhouse, located at 1801 Yale St., D&T Drive Inn, located at 1307 Enid St. and Sugar & Rice, located at 811 Heights Blvd. Foreign Correspondents, which Bernadine’s replaced at the North Shepherd Drive location, will instead open on North Main.
A new restaurant is opening in the old Stella Sola location at 1001 Studewood Dr. at 10th St. in the Heights and its generating a lot of interest. The restaurant is called Black & White and identifies itself as a “contemporary Mediterranean and seafood bistro.� Notably, Black & White will feature two restaurants in the beautiful space that formerly housed one. “It is a big place,� said Black & White owner Hernan Garcia. “It has seating for more than 200, so we thought we would offer two different restaurants with a shared kitchen. That’s why we chose to call it Black & White. The black side will offer Mediterranean and European fare. The white side will concentrate on fresh seafood and may be a little more casual. Both will offer good, honest food with a full meal in the $40 per person range.� Garcia and his partner Sven Hossfeld live in Mexico City and filed their partnership as Snapper Kitchen LLC with the State of Texas in 2014 to open an eatery in Houston. Garcia has several popular and successful restaurants operating in Mexico City already. “Last year, I visited my brother who lives in Houston. When See Black and White, P. 3B

CATERING Photos by Christina Martinez Ross was asked the question “If you could make one cocktail, one drink, what would it be? What’s your signature?” and Ross’ submission is The Holland Razor Blade. This is made with Bols Genever, Dutch GIn, lemon juice, simple syrup and finished with a cayenne and salt rim.
“When we talk about the best bartenders, they all come from New York, Chicago and a lot of East coast cities. Now they are all over the place. There isn’t a state in the country that doesn’t have some power houses - and that’s awesome,” Treadsack bar director Leslie Ross said. Ross has been working and watching the industry
cation at Saint Arnold Brewery, and later did a stint with a wine and spirits distributor before joining the team at Treadsack. Ross applies her chemistry background to her craft, often taking a scientific approach when writing drink recipes. The approach has served her well. Last week Ross and
We wanted a neighborhood bar...your mom can come in and get a vodka cranberry. the Treadsack group opened Johnny’s Gold Brick at 2518 Yale St. 77008; the home to the once Panini and wine bar, The Boom Boom Room. “Our ideas here when we came up with JGB was that we wanted a neighborhood bar, but we wanted it to be approachable for anyone that lived in that neighborhood,” Ross said. “You can come in and get a well-made Manhattan. Your mom can come in and get a Vodka Cranberry. Your dad can come in and get a Lonestar, or any craft beers that we may have. There’s something here for everyone.” Johnny’s Gold Brick, the first Treadsack concept under Ross’ direction, will offer a menu of 10 house cocktails under $10, all classic stalwarts that Ross says are so reliable because of their simplicity. If you look up on the shelf, you will also find unique and hard to find spirits that you’ll pay a prettier penny for than what is on the menu; but what you won’t find is a neighbor who walks in and who can’t find a well-made drink or a cold brew. A great testament to this is the menu item: The Boiler Maker. This menu item is a long neck Lonestar with an Old Fashioned served as a shot, and nothing encom-

develop for the past 13 years. She has worked and competed alongside leading bartenders who have shaped the industry into what it is today and, now, Ross too is joining the leading ladies as bar director of the Treadsack group and bar manager of the newly opened Johnny’s Gold Brick. If you asked Ross if competing in this year’s Southwestern Region of Diageo of World Class Competition or leading the bar program for the Treadsack group was the dream a few years back, she would give you a big smile and a long snarky giggle. If you asked Ross those years back what the plan was, she’d tell you that she was taking a more scientific approach and organic chemistry was the next move. Somewhere along the lines Ross found herself at MAX’s Wine Dive, expanding her knowledge on wine. Then continued her craft beer edu-
passes the representation of Johnny’s Gold Brick more than this, according to Ross. When putting together the menu for Johnny’s Gold Brick, owner Chris Cusack said Ross was crazy for the addition of The Boiler Maker; and on opening night, Ross and the JGB team served 48 Boiler Makers. I guess that’s why Cusack pays Ross the big bucks. As Ross has navigated through her career, she has always been driven by personal curiosity and one simple objective: to make drinks that taste good and look pretty. The easiest way to explain Ross’ cocktail creations is her self-proclaimed phrase, “I take couture and make it ready to wear.” ”When I do a competition cocktail, it’s not exactly something that I can serve,” Ross said. “The preparation of the garnish is something that wouldn’t be approachable for a normal bar. What I am good at doing is taking the same drink, same concept, same flavor profile and stripping that down and making it a reasonable thing to do. I really like doing that. It’s actually an exercise for me.” Even though Ross loves couture, she promises you won’t find the unaffordable “Davinci of gowns” cocktail on the menu at Johnny’s Gold Brick. What you will find is Ross’ touch painted on the walls, decorated around the bar and friendly staff who understand her concept of decompressing that Davinci gown and making you something that you’ll come back for on the regular night instead of on just special occasions. Johnny’s Gold Brick is Ross’ first project she’s walked through from start to finish and this isn’t where she stops. Ross will be heading the beverage program for Hunky Dory and Bernadine’s – the Treadsack double project taking shape on North Shepherd – and, also, Foreign Correspondents over off of North Main, also in the Heights; and one other project C

New Orleans is getting some Cajun flare
If you’ve driven down Durham Dr. lately, you may have noticed a small development on the right hand side before you get to I-10. Construction is being finalized for two New Orleans inspired eateries. On the far left is the just opened PJ’s Coffee of New Orleans. PJ’s Coffee serves a wide variety of hot, iced and frozen coffee, as well as organic tea and fresh breakfast pastries. The NOLA coffee house displayed their ‘Now Open’ sign Monday. On the far right side we have Gumbo Jeaux’s. This eatery serves crawfish bisque, catfish tout and even has a Bayou Burger on the menu. Yelp reviews show unanimous support and warn not to let the strip mall appearance to be a testament to the food. There is currently a vacancy for the middle space that is for lease by Silvestri Investments.

Sushi on Memorial Drive
Neighbors might be checking off their wish list a little sooner than planned with the move in of Café Japon at 5900 Memorial Dr. last week. The sushi eatery was in for the long haul with their Upper Kirby location, with a sudden closing last December. An unfortunate closing, but the area will welcome the sushi spot with open arms. The menu offers happy our every day, Monday to Saturday from 5-7 p.m. and ALL day Sunday.
Ross has her hands in. As far as competition goes, Ross received her letter as a regional finalist for the Southwestern region of Diageo of World Class. They chose 15 people in each region. The top three will advance to the National Finals in Chicago and the winner will advance to Cape Town, South Africa for the world finals. Last year, the winner was an American and Ross says she has big shoes to fill. In January, Ross competed in the San Antonio Cocktail Conference where she submitted her “Walking the Dead.” Last year, Ross competed in various competitions and was named Eater’s Best Bartender and Bombay Sapphire’s Most Imaginative Bartender of 2014. Beyond the competitions and recognition, Ross says she finds it amazing how bartenders are changing the perception of bartending from a side job to get you through college, into an actual career. We aren’t just doing this for money,” Ross said. “We care enough with what we’re doing and go forward to pioneer certain things up.” Ross may not be pioneering her own spirit line, but instead says she’s deconstructing and forming neighborhood bars to fit their location and become a neighborhood destination. All while leading her first bar program and putting her touch of couture in the Heights.

Black and White , from P. 1B I saw the Heights, and the surrounding area, I thought it was amazing. It is wonderful. I said, ‘We must do something here,’’ said Garcia. The interior of Black & White will feature reclaimed wood ceiling beams and large, driftwood globe chandeliers. Still, according to Garcia, some of the concept remains under development. The exact menu, the hours,
Sweet, from P. 1B W 19th St. “They have, hands down, the best malt I have ever had,â€? said Heiner. #7: El Bolillo, 2517 Airline Dr., had Kari Thomas at hello. “It’s delicious, less than a 10 minute drive, and open 24 hours,â€? she said. “It is the only place to get a tres leches cake anywhere in Houston,â€? seconds Carol Tosh. #8: Baskin Robbins: Abnet Hurst said her crew are “Baskin Robbins junkies so we were happy there was one so close.â€? The Oak Forest Baskin Robbins is at 1354 W 43rd St. Proprietor Shawn Salyers also owns Myti-burger, 2211 W 43rd St. where Scott Lewis gets his chocolate malts with extra malt powder. #9 Fro-yo at either Menchie’s or Sweet Frog. For Heights dwellers Menchie’s, 512 W 19th St., is most convenient, while Oak Forest and Garden Oaks residents can zip over to sweetFrog, 1214 W 43rd St. Both businesses allow you to check their websites for current flavors before you go. #10: Happy Fatz, Pat Walker said that the Italian cream cake at Happy Fatz, 3510 White Oak Dr., is definitely worth the trip. Other mentions: Bread pudding at The Boot, 1206 W 20th St., Dacapo’s, 1141 E 11th St., Ruggles Green, 748 E 11th St., and Rainbow Lodge, 2011 Ella Blvd; the Banana cheesecake at Zelko Bistro, 705 E 11th St.; Coconut cream pie at Java, 911 W 11th St; Carrot cake at Barnaby’s CafĂŠ, 2802 White Oak Dr.; Nutella pie at Lillo & Ella, 2307 Ella Blvd.; any pie by the slice at Flying Saucer Pie Company, 436 W. Crosstimbers Rd.; Tiramisu at Spaghetti Western, 1608 Shepherd Dr. and 1951 W TC Jester Blvd. or at Cavatore, 2120 Ella Blvd; and Chocolate merengue pie at Luby’s, 11250 Northwest Frwy.
and even some design elements are still under consideration. At the time of this writing, Black & White will only be open at night, at least for the first month or two. Some of Houston’s brightest culinary stars have occupied the space. The most recent was Chef Bryan Caswell’s Stella Sola, which was popular and often packed. Then it closed. The building remained vacant from Stella Sola’s closing in May of 2012. For a brief few months later that year, famed bar-b-que meat master Ronnie Killen started remodeling the space, then abruptly stopped. As for an opening date for Black & White, that too is under consideration. “We are
hoping it will be open by late April or early May,� said Garcia. “We may try some items out with the public first, to help find out what our customers want and like. We will not fully open until we are

We can’t be sure, but we think we saw the sun this week. Hopefully it is the harbinger of many pleasant days ahead this spring, when enjoying an evening cocktail on the patio is not at all out of the question. For this month’s Cocktail of the Month, we look to Brazil’s national cocktail, the Caipirinha. It’s in regular rotation at my house since my other half came back from a trip there with a bottle of cachaça and lots of advice from Brazilians on how to make the perfect Caipirinha. Cachaça, by the way, is a sugarcane-derived alcohol, like rum, which you can get stateside too. The term Caipirinha can describe any cachaça-andfruit-juice drink, but it is most traditionally made with lime. Other contenders are pineapple, lemon, or mango. The recipe is simple but delicious:
