The great Semolina and Mizado died so people can pay $25 for half of a grocery store rotessiere chicken.
Did Zea buy out these other places and shut them
down? What did Zea do the closed those other two?

I have no problem with Zea - it's fine
But why have 5 Zea and no Semolina, surely both can co-exist

I had forgotten about Mizado. What’s currently in that spot now?
Posted on 4/14/25 at 8:49 am to Paul Allen
Red Beans and Rice with Andouille and Fried Chicken is my go to.

That’s a very good dish

What if Semolina can't/doesn't want to participate anymore? Why is that Zea's fault?
What did Zea do to Semolina to cause Semolina to not exist? I think the blame for Semolina's nonexistence is Semolina's problem, no?
FWIW, I liked Semolina too, but they shut down here in BR long before Zea ever opened up.

When did Zea open in BR, I wanna say 2011?

Duck empanada
Those are so good. I could just make a meal out of order 3 batches. One of my favorites from there was the Trout Lafitte. They took it off the menu then added it back then took it off again.

Agree completely. And they add some things to the menu from time to time.
Posted on 4/14/25 at 2:20 pm to Paul Allen
I think their hummus is outstanding
Posted on 4/14/25 at 2:25 pm to Napoleon
Why do you keep comparing Zea and Semolinas? Some intersection between the two but not much, one mostly grill related entrees and the other pasta entrees.
ETA: love(d) both btw. Love live Shrimp Roban.

Zeas ownership killed Semolinas and replaced the locations with Zeas.

My thin wife (no pic) likes to go there for the red beans and fried chicken, I can't eat it, but the duck empanadas are outstanding. My problem is that the menu is kind of limited. I'm a tester, I like to try different dishes each visit, for people like my wife, who order mostly the same thing, it's a great place because the dishes are well prepared.
Those grits are in a league of their own, but warning, 800 calories per serving!!
