Second Ruggles Green restaurant opens in Houston

From Green Right Now Reports

Houston’s popular Ruggles Green, launched a year ago off West Alabama street in the Upper Kirby District, has added a second location in the new CITYCENTRE development in the Memorial area of West Houston.

The new Ruggles Green also is a Certified Green Restaurant that conforms to guidelines set by the Green Restaurant Association. Guidelines include an extensive recycling program, no use of styrofoam, energy reduction steps, water conservation steps, use of sustainable materials, public education/outreach, and use of local and organic ingredients in food.

Green Cafe Management and GJR Partners said the new Ruggles Green location will continue with the same style menu as its original location in River Oaks. Ruggles Green offers a diverse collection of comfort foods like Spicy Fish Tacos, Warm Goat Cheese Salads, Lean Buffalo Burgers, and Wood-fired Pizzas, with an emphasis on all natural and organic ingredients.

Green Cafe officials said they are planning a multi-store expansion in the Houston area during the next two years. The restaurant management company was founded by chef Bruce Molzan, Federico Marques, and Robert Guillerman.
