Two restaurants are expanding with new locations at a forthcoming project in the Heights.

Both Mendocino Farms Sandwich Market and Honeychild's Sweet Creams have signed leases at M-K-T, the adaptive reuse project planned at an industrial park on North Shepherd and 6th Street, according to the Houston Chronicle.

California-based Mendocino Farms is known for its creative chef-inspired sandwiches featuring fresh locally-sourced ingredients. The fast casual chain has plans for four restaurants in Houston.
