    New Blue Bell Flavor

    Blue Bell gets back to basics with new ice cream flavor — and it's a classic

    What's problem that can't be solved with a scoop — or two — of Blue Bell? For its newest flavor, in stores now, the little creamery in Brenham decided to go back to basics, with Chocolate Peanut Butter, described as a "rich, chocolate ice cream with a creamy peanut butter swirl."

    Blue Bell has mixed chocolate and peanut butter flavors before — one example is Tin Roof, vanilla ice cream with a fudge swirl and chocolate-covered peanuts — but nothing this simple.

    "There is no fancy gimmick to this flavor," said Blue Bell CEO and president Paul Kruse said.

    "There is no fancy gimmick to this flavor," Blue Bell CEO and president Paul Kruse said in a statement. "It's plain and simple creamy peanut butter surrounded by an equally creamy chocolate ice cream."

    "When we created this flavor it could have gone two ways. You could either make it like we did or with chocolate peanut butter cups in the ice cream. We liked the idea of swirling the peanut butter because it mixes so smoothly with our ice cream."

    In addition to the newest flavor, Blue Bell is reintroducing Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream, described as a "rich cheesecake ice cream loaded with cheesecake pieces and a flavorful blueberry swirl," and is rotating in popular flavors like Birthday Cake, Butter Crunch, Dessert Trio, Krazy Kookie Dough, Red Velvet Cake, Rockslide Brownie and Southern Blackberry Cobbler for fall.

    New restaurant shakes up Houston with Oaxacan and Tex-Mex classics

    Johnny Ritas will open this Friday, February 6.

    A Houston hospitality veteran is opening a new Mexican restaurant in Lindale Park. Johnny Ritas Cocina y Cantina will open this Friday, February 6.

    Located at 5602 Fulton Street, Johnny Ritas is the latest project from Christopher “Chico” Ramirez, whose resume includes The Boot, Field & Tides, and White Elm Brasserie. Ramirez named the restaurant for his grandparents, Johnny Johnson and Rita Ramirez.

    “Johnny Ritas is a tribute to my grandparents and the roots of our family,” Ramirez said in a statement. “Our gatherings revolved around family and cooking, and we wanted to create a place where people can come together over great food, drinks, and shared moments.”

    Ramirez’s wife, designer Wyndy Ramirez, took inspiration from Oaxaca to create the restaurant’s interior. Details include blue accents, custom tables and chairs by local craftsman Gino Vian, and other handcrafted touches.

    Working with chef-partner Jesús Salinas (Liberty Kitchen, White Elm Brasserie), Ramirez has created a menu that blends Tex-Mex classics with Mexican fare inspired by Baja and Oaxaca. Open at 3 pm during the week for dinner with brunch and dinner on the weekends, the menu includes everything from ceviche and tiradito to Molotes Oaxaqueños, al pastor tacos, fajitas, Oaxacan tamales, and snapper a la parrilla.

    Naturally, the restaurant’s beverage options start with margaritas, including house rocks, house frozen, and strawberry basil. Other drinks are the Repo Ember (reposado tequila with mango nectar) and the Mi Abuelo (bourbon, prickly pear, and cinnamon).
