Are you on the lookout for conventional flavors with a Japanese flare, a gorgeous lounge with a dwell DJ, bowling lanes, unique hookah, a nightclub, and bottomless J. Harden Wine prosecco multi functional handy, stylish one-stop store? Well look no additional than Thirteen Houston, James Harden’s new restaurant enterprise.
As the one wine critic daring sufficient to evaluate/ingest the J. Harden cab sav, there may be nothing I need greater than to sit down to a tasting menu of the Beard’s Far East-inspired delicacies.
I imply, simply have a look at this description from the web site:
“Thirteen Houston cleverly blends traditional flavors with a Japanese flare, elevated dining, and a great time into one. From our state-of-the-art restaurant and patio, to our stunning lounge with a live DJ, exotic hookah, and innovative libations, Thirteen is sure to please. We also offer a one-of-a-kind Night Club better known as ‘The Basement’ with spacious sections and a private area with a two-lane bowling alley and private bar. We’ve taken the concept of elevated dining and made it our own; #TheThirteenExperience.”
Unnecessary semicolon apart, the factor I really like to do when taking a look at celebrity-endorsed eating places is guess which dishes the namesake calls for. In this case, it’s undoubtedly the Thirteen wings, which really are available 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 different 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 other” earlier than.
The Millionaire’s Sando was solely barely tougher. It’s a type of dishes that upscale restaurant homeowners toss on the menu for the sake of extra. Think the Michael Scott loaded pretzel of fine-dining experiences. I’m actually form of shocked lobster wasn’t shoehorned in there.
As a lot as I’d like to opine on the environment, I can’t as a result of I don’t understand how shut the dwell DJ and unique hookah are to the eating space. Nothing says class like a good salmon tiradito accompanied by flavored hookah smoke and home music. I assume G/O Media will simply have to ship me down to Houston for the total #ThirteenExpertise.
