Lisa and Miguel Segura are preparing to launch two new food businesses \u2014 and collaborating with a third \u2014 to bring the married couple\u2019s food court concept to Peacock Market in Clovis.<\/p>\n
Miguel\u2019s Salsa success<\/p>\n
The Seguras founded Miguel\u2019s Salsa in 2020 with the intention of jarring and selling their homemade salsa at the farmers\u2019 market, Lisa said. The concept quickly evolved to include Jalisco and Michoacan-style Mexican food, all made using Miguel\u2019s mother\u2019s recipes.<\/p>\n
\u201cI realized, \u2018Why are they going to buy my salsa if they can\u2019t taste it, if they haven\u2019t tried the food?’\u201d Lisa said. \u201cSo I started making tamales, and then people started buying tamales. And then I started doing the tacos, the tacos dorados and we started adding and adding.\u201d<\/p>\n
The couple prepared their award-winning salsa \u2014 which took the judges\u2019 choice award at Fresno\u2019s Taco Truck Throwdown\u2019s first salsa competition \u2014 along with tamales and more at the Clovis Culinary Center before securing their spot inside Peacock Market in December 2023.<\/p>\n
Now, the Seguras are bringing two new restaurants to the market: Lisa\u2019s Southern Smokehouse and Lisa\u2019s Crepes & Sweet Thangs.<\/p>\n
Lisa\u2019s Southern Smokehouse<\/p>\n
Lisa learned to make soul food from her best friend\u2019s mother, lessons she drew from when designing the menu for her new Southern barbecue restaurant.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe was like, \u2018This is how you\u2019re going to make collard greens, and we\u2019re going to put the fried chicken with it.\u2019 This came from my upbringing,\u201d Lisa said. \u201cShe\u2019s Mama Hart to all of us and to my children and is still part of our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
The restaurant will serve Southern takes on classics like tri-tip, pulled pork and Lisa\u2019s famous barbecued chicken, all cooked low and slow in the smoker out front, Miguel said. Sides will include red beans and rice, collard greens, mac and cheese and coleslaw.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can order your rack of ribs or your whole tri-tip and feed your whole family,\u201d Lisa added.<\/p>\n
Lisa\u2019s Crepes & Sweet Thangs<\/p>\n
Lisa\u2019s Crepes & Sweet Thangs will feature French-style baked goods including crepes, macarons and beignets, as well as milkshakes and cinnamon rolls from a local bakery, which will also supply the beignet dough. Specialty matcha lattes, chai and agua frescas will round out the menu.<\/p>\n
The Seguras hope the new food court will serve as both a gathering place for those looking to dine in and a quick option for customers who need a grab-and-go meal \u2014 all while keeping prices low despite rising food and equipment costs.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think adding the different things in will just attract more people so we can keep our prices where they are \u2014 because the more we grow, the more we can pass those savings onto our customers,\u201d Lisa said.<\/p>\n
Brews and bites<\/p>\n
South of Shaw, a downtown Fresno-based craft brewery and pizzeria, will complete the food court. The business is expected to occupy a location inside Peacock Market this fall.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is going to be South of Shaw,\u201d Miguel said, pointing to the brewery\u2019s future location in the market. \u201cIt\u2019s going to be 3,900 square feet, about 260 seats back there. There\u2019s going to be a door that connects us \u2014 we\u2019re really excited.\u201d<\/p>\n
