A Trend in Houston’s Restaurant Scene

The opening of Jo’s Coffee in Houston is noticing some changes in the dining scene as cities in Texas are beginning to relax their COVID-19 restrictions.

However, the atmosphere in Houston is a bit different as restaurants like Jo’s Coffee join the trend of adapting to a new normal with their safety measures in mind.
