Olympic icon Simone Biles is getting into the restaurant business.
Per Eric Sandler of Culture Map Houston, Biles is going to open the Taste of Gold restaurant in the first quarter of 2025.
The restaurant will be located inside the George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Biles’ hometown of Houston. She has partnered with The Playmakers Group to help create the eatery.
“I am very excited to partner with The Playmakers Group and their dedicated team to help bring a new restaurant to my hometown airport,” Biles said in a statement, via Sandler. “I am a foodie at heart, and our hope with Taste of Gold is to offer a beautiful dining experience that features award-winning, signature menu items with some of my favorite flavors sprinkled in for our guests.”
Sandler noted The Playmakers Group operates athlete-themed restaurants in airports, including one that was created in partnership with Dallas Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki at the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport that opened in August 2023.
While details about the menu choices are not yet available, the name is fitting for the most-decorated United States gymnast in Olympic history.
Biles earned four medals—three gold, one silver—at the Paris Games this summer. She has a total of 11 Olympic medals in her storied career, including seven golds. The 27-year-old is two gold medals away from tying Larisa Latynina of the Soviet Union for the most by a female gymnast in Olympics history.
With the 2028 Summer Games set to take place in Los Angeles, Biles hasn’t ruled out competing in her fourth career Olympics. She was already the oldest American woman’s gymnast to qualify for the Games since 1952 this year.
If Biles were to qualify for the U.S. team in 2028, she would become the second-oldest woman to compete for the squad in history at the age of 31. Marie Margaret Hoesly was 35 years old at the 1952 Olympics.
