The hours on the add have got to be a misprint only open for 1 or 2 hrs no restaurant would have those hours

At one end there use to be a convince store that sold big bags of ice for cheap my family use to drive the 1 mile to go there it closed in like 1998 to like 2002.  There other end use to be a bar do not anything about it it was the last place to close.

Strip shopping center on Willowbend just east of the rail roads tracks was torn down at the end of last summer town homes will be built in its place.

Strip center next to Auto Zone West Bellfort and Chimneyt Rock was torn down early last yr a fitness center will be built in its place I do not know how they have enough room for the building and the parking lot. 

Two cafeteria chains in Houston I remember are Wyatt's and Piccadilly. My parents would take us to the Wyatt's on 43rd at Ella occasionally for lunch after church on Sunday's. There was a fountain in the middle of the dinning room and an "attendant" always carried my tray to the table since I was just a little guy at the time. Those employees were invariably ladies wearing a dress with a white apron and a white folded cloth hat that looked quite a bit like the one my mother wore to work (she was a nurse).

 

I think there may still be a Piccadilly Cafeteria in Almeda Mall. I know there used to be one at its twin, Northwest Mall.

 

Wyatt's South Post Oak and West Bellfort closed like 15 to 18 yrs ago I remember going there about 7 to 10 time there was another one that was at OST and Griggs that closed like 2 to 4 yrs ago

The lady that left Annies opend Cues 1993 to 1995 South Post Oak & MC Dermed right next to the Chinese Buffet across the freeway from Whataburger and Kroger.  Cues has much better food than Annies which has gone down hill in the last 5 to 7 yrs

If you look at Google street view it is just a darinage ditch that is most likely 3 yrs old max

Record Rack it is now a smoke shop I think.  That use to be the best place to get records in the late 90s I got so many good deals there.  In the early 2000s it was sold and the new owner tried to turn it into a rap hiphop vinyl record store that did not last a yr. 

I live in Willow Meadows right around the corner I know everyone of those Houses

There use to a siren horn on Cliffwood right across from Red Elementary next to the neighborhood pool where the private school is now. The siren horn would go off ever Friday at 12pm for testing this was for a warning if we ever when to war with Russia when Russia broke up in to small countries in about 1998 to 2001 this siren horn was taken down I think this is what you were hearing. The siren horn was on top of a 65ft to 100ft telephone pole
