The big news this week is that beloved family eatery Cleburne Cafeteria, 3606 Bissonnet, burned to the ground on Monday night, just weeks before its 75-year anniversary. Even worse, owner George Mickelis used the restaurant as an art gallery for his late father's paintings, most of which were destroyed in the fire. Mickelis intends to rebuild the restaurant in the same location, although it may take a long time to clear away the remnants of the structure and build a new one in its place.

Saloon Door Brewing is open at 105A Magellan Circle in Webster and throwing a grand-opening weekend celebration from April 29 to May 1. The brewery serves food, too, and has weekend beer-pairing specials, such as milk stout with Cuban-style pork sandwiches and baked beans for just $12. 

According to Greg Morago of the Houston Chronicle, the second location of Houston's famous Kenny & Ziggy's New York Delicatessen will open the week of May 2, at 5172 Buffalo Speedway, with much the same menu as the original Post Oak location.
