Celina Star Cafe Owners Are Bringing A New Brunch Spot To Preston Road
A fter nearly a decade of serving breakfast and lunch at Celina Star Cafe , the family behind the longtime local diner is preparing something a little different. Brunch Factory, a new upscale breakfast and lunch concept, is planned for Celina West along Preston Road, near Costco.

That search became CheapFoodMap.com , a free, crowdsourced map of affordable dishes at independent restaurants across the country. The site has grown to more than 2,000 listings nationwide, including a strong presence in Dallas-Fort Worth. Jay has also made a point of visiting restaurants himself and sharing discoveries through social media. His goal is to help diners stretch their food budgets while directing business toward locally owned restaurants that may not have the advertising resources of national chains. Finding The Deals Hiding In Plain Sight Jay said the idea grew out of the frustration of seeing higher prices become commonplace and wondering where people could still find a satisfying meal without spending $10 or more. “Once I started looking, they absolutely existed — mostly small, locally

Know Your Pecan Pie and Where to Find the Good Ones
Pecan pie has been the official State Pie of Texas since 2013, when the Legislature passed a resolution saying no dish says “Texas” more sweetly. It took a while. The Texas Siftings humor paper was already calling pecan pie worthy of being a “real state pie” back in 1886, and the pecan has been the state tree since 1919.
