The visit was part of a larger series of stops after which Lee ranked Houston the second-best food city in the country (behind New Orleans); Lee said, "I can’t think of one spot in Houston that we didn’t love." - Brittany Britto Garley

"After the Paris Olympics I noted Biles made her first Houston stop at Midtown restaurant Stick Talk Cajun‑Hibachi and gave it her stamp of approval, saying it "never misses"; the owner revealed her order as two portions of chicken fried rice with vegetables and spicy garlic butter, plus an extra side of noodles." - Brittany Britto Garley
"After returning from the Paris Olympics, I saw that Simone Biles made the Midtown Stick Talk Cajun-Hibachi one of her first pitstops; her husband Jonathan Owens picked up to-go orders that included two portions of chicken fried rice with vegetables and spicy garlic butter and an extra side of noodles, and Biles gave it her stamp of approval on Threads with the simple review: “Never misses.” The restaurant group’s co-owner said the team was excited she chose them after making history at the Olympics and even joked they might name a dish after her; Stick Talk is known for hibachi-style dishes fused with Cajun flavors and also received significant praise from viral critic Keith Lee during a 2023 visit." - Brittany Britto Garley
