Just days after The Good Kind announced it was closing its location at the Pearl’s Bottling Department food hall to focus on its Southtown location, its replacement has been announced.

Humble House Foods, a San Antonio hot sauce maker and a vendor at the Pearl Farmers Market, will open SayTown Tacos by the end of February. The menu at SayTown, seemingly a phonetic play on S.A., will offer various tacos named in honor of San Antonio events, landmarks and stars.

There will be a Riverwalk-O-Taco with chicken, pickles and crema; a Popfather honoring Spurs coach Gregg Popovich with a crispy tortilla, potatoes, veggies and crema; and a Fiesta Fuego, with pork, veggies, cilantro and lime. The new spot also will serve fideo, buñuelos, aguas frescas, rice pudding and more, with everything priced between $3 and $4.

Humble House Foods founders Luis and Marsha Morales started building the brand in 2009 and found a statewide platform when their Ancho & Morita‑Smokey Tamarind Sauce earned a $10,000 third-place prize in H-E-B’s 2016 Quest for Texas Best contest. Humble House also bottles Guajillo & Red Jalapeño Hot Sauce and Habanero & Ají Amarillo Sauce, all three of which are made without preservatives and aged to intensify their respective flavors.

“The loyalty and support of our customers has been monumental for the growth of our business. The new concept, SayTown Tacos, embodies the same dedication and commitment to quality that made Humble House unique,” Luis Morales said in a news release.
