This story begins in the early 90’s, in a small, middle class suburb of SW Houston named Alief. What distinguished this suburb from others was the melting pot of cultures and the joining of the white and blue collar workers. Growing up in Alief during this time was special. The bonds that were formed between young teenagers were more than just friendships; they were brotherhoods. Moving into adulthood, most set out to follow their own destinies in life. After traveling down their own paths for nearly two decades, three Alief men’s lives crossed paths once again. It seemed as if no time had passed between them, as they were able to pick up where they left off. The brotherhood was still intact and stronger than ever. In 2014, a year after rebooting their friendship, the three men developed an awareness of a shared enthusiasm for three things: good friends, good food and good times. With this realization, they set out on a new endeavor, creating the path of Blood Bros. BBQ.

Bao or baozi--soft, steamed buns stuffed with savory or sweet fillings--originated nearly 1800 years ago. The tradition has endured: baozi is a popular street food and breakfast staple in China (with variants throughout Asia), but is not widely known or readily available in the United States. Although baozi is the signature menu item, Caobao also serves savory guabao, traditional and updated noodle dishes, Asian snacks, and boba teas. Family owned and operated, we understand the need to create meals that everyone can enjoy. Vegetarian, vegan, and halal options are always available.

Mama La” is the secret ingredient behind each of our Kim Son Restaurants.  Born in Vietnam, Kim Su Tran La, her husband and their seven children, arrived in Houston in 1980 after fleeing from Communist regime in their homeland. Armed with her extensive knowledge of Vietnamese cooking, which was passed down to her from her mother-in-law, Mama La managed to memorize over 250 recipes before opening the first KIM SON Restaurant. Her food quickly gained the following of thousands of fans along with the admiration and loyalty of many of Vietnam’s top restaurant cities. The original KIM SON was located in Vinh Long before it was eventually closed due to the communist takeover in Vietnam.

Perennially voted “Best Vietnamese Restaurant” in Houston by the Houston Press, KIM SON has also garnered praise through a number of prestigious magazines, such as Bon Appétit, Esquire, and Food & Wine. Today, Mama La’s talent in the kitchen has paved the way for the KIM SON Restaurant Group to grow to four full-service restaurants, three banquet facilities, and four food court outlets throughout the Houston area. We hope that we meet – or exceed – your expectations when visiting any of our restaurants.

Ocean Palace serves dim sum all day from 10am – 9pm and has the largest variety of dim sum in Houston.

Our signature Pho Ga Kho (seasoned chicken noodles with soup on the side) is another popular item we would recommend.

As a specialty Japanese ramen shop, we are proud to be diligent, honest, and passionate about ramen. We will never serve pre-made, artificially preserved broth or use mass-produced commercial noodles that other ramen shops may use. If you stop by at Samurai Noodles, we promise to always present you with our fresh, handmade noodles and our authentic ramen broths.

Today, we would like to talk you about the thin straight Tonkotsu noodles that we make here at Samurai Noodle. First of all, we use a noodle making machine (about 700 pounds) that we have imported from Japan and produce over 1000 servings of noodles on a daily basis. You can watch our noodle maker skillfully craft our noodles at the Samurai Noodle’ s University District store or Houston store almost every day! You might watch our noodle makers at work and think that making noodles is an easy task, but you would be sadly mistaken! Noodle making requires a sensitive touch that you can’ t learn from reading a manual or recipe. The recipe itself must be constantly altered slightly depending on several factors including the temperature and humidity. Noodle making is an art that requires the noodle master to “feel” the noodles.

Founded in 2021, Seng Seng Cafe is one of the few boba shops that provide authentic Taiwanese Snow Ice, Premium Boba Drinks, & Asian Snacks.

Crossing-the-bridge noodles have over a 100-yearlong rich history. Cross-the-bridge noodles were invented by a woman who had to take lunch across a bridge to her husband who worked on an island, so she packaged everything separately to keep the noodles from getting soggy. Cross-the-bridge noodles are served with the noodles and other ingredients separate from the broth, so customers add everything at once and then eat at their own preference. That story is the one we adhere to as the history of our storied cuisine, and we can’t wait to share it with all of you! Follow us on our journey to share our love of Ten Seconds Noodles with all of Texas!
