Healthy Food for a Happy World

Flower Child's feel-good eats come to Houston's Town & Country Village

The restaurant Flower Child, known for its vibrant, made-from-scratch menu, has officially opened its doors in Houston’s Town & Country Village. This marks an exciting addition to the local dining scene, offering a fresh, wholesome option for a variety of lifestyles and dietary preferences.

Flower Child’s mission is to serve “positively delicious vibes” through nourishing, flavorful dishes. The menu caters to everyone, from vegetarians and vegans to meat-eaters, as well as those following gluten-free, keto, or paleo diets.

Guests can customize their meals with bowls, wraps, salads, and an array of mix-and-match veggies, grains, fruits, and proteins.

A few menu stand-outs include the Mother Earth bowl, with ancient grains, sweet potato, portobello mushroom, avocado, and more crisp veggies topped with a red pepper miso vinaigrette; the Brussels sprouts and organic kale salad; and the Rebel wrap, filled with grass-fed steak, charred onion, port salut cheese, arugula, and horseradish yogurt.

What sets Flower Child apart is its commitment to scratch-made cooking with locally sourced ingredients. Every dish is designed to nourish the body and delight the taste buds. As the restaurant proudly puts it, “Just because we can do sugar-free, dairy-free, and gluten-free doesn’t mean we do flavor-free… because where’s the happy in that?”

The welcoming atmosphere is another plus. Whether you’re looking to relax and enjoy a sit-down meal or grab a quick, healthy bite on the go, guests can expect a dining experience that’s as uplifting as it is satisfying.

Houston's most pretty-in-pink restaurant quietly closes in Upper Kirby

You'll see a lot of pink at PostScript.

PostScript, Upper Kirby’ posh pink restaurant, has quietly closed, CultureMap has learned.

Although the restaurant is still accepting reservations on OpenTable — and is, as of this article’s publication, listed as open on both Yelp and Google — reports circulated on social media this weekend that it had abruptly canceled diners’ Mother’s Day reservations. In addition, its dining room in the Shops at Arrive mixed-use development has been emptied of furniture.

PostScript opened with considerable fanfare in February 2024. Owners Veeral Rathod and Obi Ibeto, brought their experiences as partners in the Dallas-based GAP Hospitality to the project, which operates establishments such as XOXO Dining Room, Lyla, and Drai’s Dallas. Particularly inspired by XOXO Dining Room, they created an ode to pink that included pink exterior and interior walls, a pink quartz bar, and a pink grand piano. “Push for Champagne” buttons added to the lively spirit.

Chef Bryan Caswell created the menu. Best known for his pioneering Gulf Coast seafood restaurant Reef that closed in 2019, Caswell’s menu included fried chicken with hummus, oysters three ways (raw, roasted, and fried), a sushi roll, and the double smoked pork chop that was a Reef staple. A doughnut topped with caviar became a customer favorite.

Since Caswell was only consulting on the project, he left a couple of months after opening. Latuli, Caswell’s new Gulf Coast-inspired restaurant in the Memorial area, is expected to open soon.

CultureMap has reached out to PostScript via email, phone, and Instagram message for comment on the decision to close the restaurant. We will update this article if they reply.

PostScript’s closure follows that of Cru, which ended a 13-year run in December 2024. On the other hand, Kira, a sushi hand roll concept from Houston’s Comma Hospitality that’s also located in the development, is thriving, having earned the No. 4 spot on Texas Monthly’s list of the state’s best new restaurants. The development is also home to beloved Indian restaurant Pondicheri, an outpost of the steakhouse chain Eddie V’s, and top tier Houston shopping destination Tootsie’s.
