KOTV in Tulsa has a very good article about the impending reopening Friday of the Rock Cafe in Stroud, Okla., after a devastating fire a year ago.
The particularly newsworthy parts in the story are about owner Dawn Welch, near the end:
Welch has written a cookbook, “Dollars to Donuts” and is due out November 10, but it can be pre-ordered right now on Amazon.com.
Welch is also waiting to see if she’ll get her own cooking show. It’s currently being shopped around to different networks.
Sure enough, the cookbook can be ordered here. It’s subtitled “Real Meal Deals That Help You Eat Better and Save You Money.” The suggested retail price is $19.99, and will be published by Rodale.
As for television, I know there’s been a lot of pre-production work on it, but nothing definite yet.
Preservation Magazine also has a story about the Rock Cafe fire and its reconstruction.
