Webster Foods LLC is gearing up to open 40 Tasti D-Lite franchised locations in South Texas over the next 10 years. ... Houston-based Webster Foods — which was established in July specifically to develop Tasti D-Lite franchises in Houston, Austin and San Antonio — plans to open four to seven Houston locations in the next 12 to 18 months as a pilot program. Aaron Webster, a managing member of Webster Foods, says the company will then determine how well the brand is being received in Houston before expanding to the Austin and San Antonio markets. Anyone been there before? I’m sure it won’t be cheap.

There are several billboards/signage that have had been blown clear to expose the previous signage underneath. Its a bit of history. I’ve seen a Texas Commerce sign under a blown out Chase sign on 59, a Computize sign, and a Sam White Motor City billboard on 59/A90! Its like I’m a teenager again commuting to UH! Well anyway, I think its cool. I’ll try to take pictures.
