Cisneros has been working on the Brasas brand for about four years, and it took a lot of patience to find the right spot for its permanent space. “I want to be able to focus on the chicken and continue the same quality we put out at Jalea,” he says. “When we came across this space, we didn’t even have to think twice. It was perfect.” The building’s small bar area, separate room for seating and sizable kitchen checked all the boxes. Now that they’ve picked up the keys, it’s time to get to work on cosmetic renovations; Cisneros and his wife’s recent Europe trip will inspire the interior design. “We went to Lille, France, and visited a lot of gastropubs – they’re very contemporary and cozy,” he says. “We’re going to try to take influences from not just France, but also London and other places and put it all together.”
