HOUSTON
ASIAN FUSION
Loro Houston
Asian Fusion · Inventive · Northside
$$
The Houston outpost of Tyson Cole and Aaron Franklin's improbable Asian smokehouse — the same Austin original that fuses Texas barbecue technique with Southeast Asian flavors, now in a Heights room. Smoked brisket with Thai herbs, oak-smoked chicken, the frozen gin and tonics that became signatures. Casual, order-at-the-counter, with the same culinary pedigree as the Austin flagship. For Cole-Franklin fusion cooking extended to Houston's audience.
