Somerville Server Cashing In on Labor Day
Font Size:

Somerville, TX -- If you are spending the day on the golf course…

“It’s Labor Day, I’m off, we're out here at the A&M Golf Course, just me and my 4-year-old son,” said Mike Terry. “We’re just here to have a little fun today while the weather is nice. "

Or if you're enjoying the day off at Lake Somerville, a majority of working Americans are taking advantage of Labor Day, far away from work.

Except for Cassie Claman-- she's working hard at ‘Mama's Kitchen.’

"I got here at 8 O’clock this morning, it's not bad actually, someone's got to do it,” said Claman.

With only a handful of restaurants in Somerville, hungry visitors craving country cookin' are pulling in to Mama's Kitchen.

"It has been pretty busy for a Monday, we're not usually this busy on Monday's," said Claman.

"We're Hungry!" said Jason Mangum, of Goliad, Texas.

Mangum and his family are just passing through Somerville and said he's spending his Labor Day with: ”Family... I wouldn't have it any other way."

Although Claman is busy working…"Really it's not that bad, it's just another day to me..."

She says at the end of the day, a little extra cash will go a long way.

"I know some people have to do it and I bless them for it,” said Mangum. “I wish that everybody could have this day off, but I think that's what makes this world go round' if nobody was working today, we wouldn't be able to eat here!"

Best home-made food around!!! Prices are very reasonable and you get a whole lot of food for your money!! All of the wait staff are friendly and personable! My husband and I are frequent customers and once the ladies know you, you are treated like family!! Our Houston friends love Mama's too!!!

This place is awesome. They have the best chicken fried steaks, chocolate pie and the corn nuggets are great! The prices are better than anywhere, especially for what you get. Everything there is good.
