Anyone remember the chain of healthy Tex Mex joints that were in Houston in the mid 90s, I believe they only lasted about 2 or 3 years and may have originated in Dallas. They were called Zoo Zoo or Zee Zee or some such, I've done a google search and couldn't find them under those names so I don't have it right name wise. I believe there was another location across the street and down a ways from Kenneally's.

I remember one was in Bellaire, that we would frequent at lunch, at the time I worked out that way.

They emphasized healthy fresh cooking, you would go through a cafeteria type line to select your food. They had black beans, baked chips stuff like that.

Their logo was bright primary colors as I recall and had almost cartoon type characters included in the logo and the restaurants decor.

Anyone remember the them and more specifically the real name?

Looks like the franchise may have dissolved but they are still in Austin.

I believe ZuZu's is the correct answer.
I remember it as a decent joint.

Oh yeah....there was one at Holcombe and Kirby-ish. Pretty good stuff.

i freakin LOVED that place...i miss it so much!

If you can't find a ZuZu's I think Ziggy's has some TexMex on their menu. Haven't eaten there in about two years though...

i wish i could try this. the closest thing i've had to "healthy" tex mex is baja fresh...

If its healthy; its not texmex.

you dont eat texmex if you want healthy. Thats an unwritten rulles.

oxymoron??????
