“I’ve been waiting for the green light for this...” he said. “Houston, Texas. I’m coming.”
However, Lee may need help with some recommendations. According to the influencer, who was in Atlanta recently, he is asking for suggestions on family-owned restaurants, mom-and-pop shops, and/or local places with great food.

But there are conditions, though -- Lee says while the restaurants must have great customer service, he specifies those that need help with marketing.
He is well-known for bringing what fans described as the “Keith Lee effect,” -- where fans say he turned struggling businesses around thanks to his food reviews.
Lee said he encourages his fans and restaurant owners to tag him in videos, comment, or email him for any suggestions.
“I can’t wait. Houston is gonna be one of them ones,” he said. “Houston has the possibility to be ICONIC.”
Lee did not specify in his video when he’ll be in town.
