"Vinegar Hill Houston, a new permanent restaurant featuring rotating chefs, will debut in the former original Beaver’s space next month. The restaurant’s name comes from the district’s moniker in the 1800s. It will occupy a former 1970s icehouse which was revamped by designer Gino Vian. Pope will oversee regular kitchen operations, and guide chefs through three-month residencies. Pop-up chef Evelyn Garcia will be Vinegar Hill Houston’s first chef-in-residence. The bar program will focus on “innovative” cocktails and local craft beer. Vinegar Hill Houston is also experimenting as an “alternative co-working space,” with coffee and biscuits produced by Pope." - Alaena Hostetter
