H.R. No. 52
 
 
 
R E S O L U T I O N
 
         WHEREAS, Locally owned and operated restaurants contribute
  to the character and vitality of their communities, and Snappy's
  Café and Grill in Katy, which plays such a valued role, is
  celebrating its 15th anniversary on February 8, 2017; and
         WHEREAS, Founded in 2002 by Bobby Katsabas and Alex
  Tsounakas, Snappy's is a traditional neighborhood diner, open seven
  days a week for breakfast and lunch; the menu includes home-style
  fare such as eggs and bacon, omelets, pancakes, sandwiches,
  burgers, liver and onions, and chicken-fried steak, as well as
  flavorful Greek specialties such as souvlaki and gyro sandwiches;
  and
         WHEREAS, Over the past decade and a half, Snappy's has become
  a popular gathering spot for families to share a meal together, for
  local officials and businesspeople to meet informally, and for
  seniors to hold court and solve the world's problems over a cup of
  coffee; on game days, the restaurant also serves as an unofficial
  headquarters for fans of the Katy Tigers; and
         WHEREAS, The café's warm atmosphere is fostered by its owners
  and its friendly and hardworking staff, who make an extra effort to
  know the names and usual orders of their customers, providing the
  kind of personal service that is a hallmark of small-town life; and
         WHEREAS, The well-being of Texas depends on a vibrant,
  diversified economy, and independent businesses deeply rooted in
  their communities are to be commended for strengthening the
  prosperity of the Lone Star State; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
  Legislature hereby commemorate the 15th anniversary of Snappy's
  Café and Grill and extend to Bobby Katsabas, Alex Tsounakas, and
  their staff sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be it
  further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for Mr. Katsabas and Mr. Tsounakas as an expression of high
  regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
