Mojo Latin Fusion Coming Into Former Exo Cafe Spot on Austin

And we add another Latin fusion place to the mix, continuing the Forest Hills tradition of making sure we have plenty of each kind of ethnic cuisine to choose from.

Am I crazy to long for a Panera or other chain to pick up a quick, decent sandwich, salad or soup? We have La Boulangerie, which is awesome, but we could use a little more variety when it comes to fast-casual fare.

  1. Not crazy at all- we definitely need more fast-casual fare. Not everybody has the time to sit down for a $15 lunch special and some faster options would be great. I think Pret a Manger would do well here since Boulangerie and Paris Baguette have very limited lunch type offerings. I'm sure you will all hate my saying this and I'm not sure about it myself but another fast food type place might not be bad either, Shake Shack and McDonalds are always busy.

    1. Supermarkets. Where are they?

    2. YES. SUPERMARKETS. I always end up buying groceries at Target now because it's the closest (I don't drive). The Vitello's on Yellowstone is a 10 min walk in each direction, but it's obscenely expensive. I really do wish we had a Trader Joe's in the central FH area, like where the old Key Food was by Gerard Towers.

    4. There was some Asian eatery backlash on here sometime ago. Now there's at least 5 Latin places with 1 mile vincinity of Continental apparently it's all good. What gives???

  2. Excited for this place.

    Agreed that a Panera and a Chop't/SweetGreen would be great. Think stuff like that is not far behind.

    1. Great, Chipotle, if that's your thing; is that, McDonalds and Shake Shack enough for a place with this many people and more buildings on the way?
