Health Dept. Temporarily Closes Gumbo Spot
Published
Tina Knowles started the week with some Southern DIS-comfort … her Texas eatery, Mama Tina’s Gumbo, was shut down at the Houston Rodeo on Monday … but the good news is it’s back open now!
The Houston Health Department shut down the gumbo booth for undisclosed reasons … but Beyoncé‘s mom was right back in the saddle yesterday as the establishment was reopened.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
The gumbo is apparently a special family recipe that has been perfected over decades, and loved by Bey! Officials gave us the lowdown about the brief shutdown …
The Houston Health Dept. tells TMZ … “On Monday, March 16, 2026, the Houston Health Department issued a temporary closure of Mama Tina’s Gumbo booth at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo as a result of a complaint investigation. The vendor was cooperative with the department’s recommendations and passed a subsequent inspection. It was authorized to reopen on Tuesday, March 17, 2026.”
Clearly, this ain’t Mama Tina’s first rodeo!
