"Mixiote, a business born in La Cocina, has opened its first brick-and-mortar location in Salesforce Tower East. The counter-service lunch spot offers a menu of build-your-own bowls with slow-cooked Mexican meats. The venue is run by Alma Rodriguez and her son Arturo, who have been part of the La Cocina incubator program since 2016. The menu features proteins marinated in chile sauce and wrapped in maguey leaves before being steam cooked. Mixiote serves from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, and it’s a simple takeout-only operation with plans for a full-service restaurant in the future." - Lauren Saria
