You can expect Mediterranean-inspired fare served in a fast-casual setting at Zoës Kitchen, a franchise eatery with locations in 15 states throughout the country. At Zoës Kitchen, the focus is on fresh, healthy food. In fact, Zoë—the first name of founder Zoë Cassimus—translates to "life" in Greek, and food here is a celebration of life's finer things: friends, family, and delicious food.

Whether you get your food to-go or eat a table inside or on the patio, you'll enjoy Zoës' hot soups, fresh salads, pita sandwiches, and hearty entrees. The flavorful hummus is popular among regulars, made on-site. Replete with lean protein and veggies, hot entrees include chicken kabobs with rice pilaf and the steak roll-up with caramelized onions. Items on the kids' menu are accompanied by fresh fruit. Those adhering to gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian diets are also accommodated.

Zoës Kitchen is open daily, from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. The convenience of online ordering is offered.

We hope to see you and your friends at West End for our first Resident Happy Hour on Thursday May 29th! We encourage you to come out to enjoy drinks and food courtesy of M5250 from 5pm-8pm.

Bikram Hot Yoga Houston offers 90 minute, teacher-led sessions in a room that’s heated to 105 degrees. Why so hot? Aficionados claim that the heat loosens muscles and prevents injury. It also promotes detoxification and increases circulation.

Each class takes you through six yoga postures and breathing practices, essentially stretching your muscles, ligaments, tendons, joints, and internal organs and helping to circulate highly oxygenated blood throughout your body. Students of this yoga type report increased strength, balance, flexibility, lung capacity, and vitality.

Every class is open to all experience levels, from beginner to advanced. The studio features air purifiers that use electro-violet light and negative ion generators. Locker rooms and showers are provided. See the studio's website for pricing and class schedules.
