PS21, a modern French restaurant from Schmit and partner Sebastien Laval, opens next week...
Sebastien Laval and chef Philippe Schmit are partners in the new PS21, a modern French restaurant.Chef Philippe Schmit, a once shining light on the Houston food scene but absent for years without his own kitchen, returns to the city’s busy dining fold with a new modern French restaurant opening in Upper Kirby on March 9., a project from Schmit and partner Sebastien Laval will open at 2712 Richmond, in the former Queen Vic and Olive & Twist space.
The restaurant takes its name from the partners initials and the year the project began in earnest: the lease was signed in 2021, although the restaurant has been in the planning phases since 2019. “I’m very excited, obviously,” Schmit said. “Some people may remember me and my food. I realize that there are a lot of people who have never tasted my food. I’m going to have to charm new customers.”
Laval said that the restaurant seeks to find a niche between high concept French-inspired restaurants such as the new hotspot Ciel and more quaint French offerings in the city. “We’re trying to bridge a gap between the two,” he said. “We want the place to be convivial and fun.”Schmit and Laval have completely redesigned the 3,400-square-foot space.
