			<title>The Brennan's Family</title>
			<description>Noted restaurateur Alex Brennan-Martin, of famed Brennan&amp;#8217;s, brings two new dining concepts to Houston&amp;#8217;s Hotel Sorella and CITYCENTRE   Inside the Hotel Sorella, you&amp;#8217;ll find Caf&amp;#233; Ros&amp;#233; and Bistro Alex, two new and greatly anticipated concepts from restaurateur Alex Brennan-Martin, scion of the famed Brennan restaurant clan.     The Brennan&amp;#8217;s name is recognizable around the world with famed culinary outposts located in New Orleans as well as Houston. For more than 40 years, Houstonians have joined in a culinary journey at Brennan&amp;#8217;s of Houston that has stayed true to their Louisiana roots and unrivaled service traditions of the Brennan&amp;#8217;s family, while infusing a stream of innovations from the kitchen. The result is a signature Texas-Creole cuisine and experience that bridges generations with dishes as exciting and noteworthy &amp;#8211; and ambience as welcoming &amp;#8211; to this one as to its first.

			<description>      A little place where simplicity and serenity reign                           Dating back 30 some-odd years to the quaint French caf&amp;#233;s that served as neighborhood hubs when Alex Brennan-Martin was training at the prestigious La Varrene culinary arts school in Paris, he has since longed to &amp;#8220;have a little place&amp;#8221; where simplicity and serenity reign.                Fast-forward to the Fall of 2009 when Alex&amp;#8217;s life-long dream became a double-dip reality, opening Bistro Alex and Caf&amp;#233; Ros&amp;#233; in Houston&amp;#8217;s west side.

			<title>Chef Juan Carlos Gonzalez</title>
			<description>  Infusing bold flavors and fresh, quality ingredients into dishes such as Boudin Blanc Crusted Black Grouper with Five Mustard Sauce      Chef Juan Carlos Gonzalez learned to appreciate bold flavors at a very young age. Born in Puerto Rico to a family of Spanish and Italian decent, his family embraced large celebrations. Using the freshest herbs, seasonal produce and catches of the day, Juan Carlos&#8217; father oversaw the outdoor cooking of titanic proportions and his mother managed other meal preparations indoors.

&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Step into a scene unlike any other in the Brennan&amp;#8217;s Restaurants mix. A juxtaposition to casual counterpart &lt;a href=&quot;/cafe-rose/&quot; target=&quot;_self&quot;&gt;Caf&amp;#233; Ros&amp;#233;&lt;/a&gt; and across-town &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.brennanshouston.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Brennan&amp;#8217;s of Houston&lt;/a&gt;, Bistro Alex is a fun neighborhood gathering place set against an inspiring, modern backdrop.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;img hspace=&quot;5&quot; alt=&quot;Bistro Alex Dining Room&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; src=&quot;/attachments/wysiwyg/4/Bistro-Alex-Dining-Room.jpg&quot; width=&quot;350&quot; height=&quot;193&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/bistro-menu/&quot;&gt;The bold, flavorful menu&lt;/a&gt; reflects a marriage of Brennan&amp;#8217;s classic favorites and premium lighter fare. Signature dishes range from evolutions of Texas Creole and creative entr&amp;#233;e salads to an array of roasted selections and seasonal sides. And, of course, impeccable service provides the memorable dining experiences that are a Brennan&amp;#8217;s family hallmark.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Indeed, Bistro Alex is about the great food respected for decades at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.brennanshouston.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Brennan&amp;#8217;s of Houston&lt;/a&gt;&amp;#8230; with a progressive twist. The inviting bistro is designed around a large open kitchen. Both contemporary and traditional, a nature-inspired color palette and eye-catching tile accents are coupled with Texas-style d&amp;#233;cor and sleek design elements. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Open for &lt;a href=&quot;/bistro-lunch/&quot;&gt;lunch&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;/bistro-menu/&quot;&gt;dinner &lt;/a&gt;and &lt;a href=&quot;/bistro-brunch/&quot;&gt;Sunday brunch&lt;/a&gt;, Bistro Alex offers a contemporary bistro experience fitting for business patrons and casual diners alike. Pricing, on par with other restaurants in the Brennan&amp;#8217;s Restaurants dynasty, offers a great value both in wine pricing and menu selections that appeal to traditionalists and cutting-edge foodies alike. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;As Alex Always Says, &quot;Life's Short, Eat Well!&quot;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
