Guillermo Perez is the latest entrepreneur to make the jump from the Pearl Market into a full time retail space Downtown. His new business is called Si Señor, and is moving into the old Rolls Cafe space at 6 East Long Street in the Atlas Building.
“What we’re trying to do is offer a few traditional Latin sandwiches as well as some familiar items with a Latin twist,” said Guillermo. “We want our menu to showcase items that people feel comfortable with.”
The menu primarily consists of sandwiches, entrees, sides, desserts and beverages.
“One of the cool things we’re doing is marinading and slow-roasting our own turkey, roast beef and pork,” added Guillermo. “One of our most popular items at the Pearl Market was our braised pork that we then fry and serve with picked red onions and sweet potato mayo.”
The small cafe will primarily service as a take-out establishment, as their indoor seating only accommodates around 10 people at a time. “We will also be doing some catering, and eventually want to offer delivery as well,” said Guillermo.
The cafe will be open from 10am to 4pm on Monday through Friday to start. “If there’s demand, we’ll look into expanding our hours and adding Saturdays,” said Guillermo.
