Hawkers Asian Street Food, a chain restaurant serving up generations-old recipes and unique craft cocktails, is opening a new location at the Domain at 3309 Esperanza Crossing.
Public records examined by What Now Austin outline an eye-opening $4,500,000 construction project consisting of a “Tenant build out of an existing 7,281sf space/ proposed 2nd floor with bar and seating”, set to finish by December.
Co-founders Kaleb Harrell, Allen Lo, Wayne Yung, and Kin Ho were encouraged to launch this restaurant after their travels across Southeast Asia, where they saw how street vendors used generations-old recipes while using local ingredients. As a result, the group brought the concept back to America, offering small Asian-influenced plates, craft cocktails, local beer, wine, or saké. Today, there are over a dozen locations in seven states.
No opening date has been announced.
