October 26, 1997

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATION.
GENERAL
Over the past year the Company has taken major steps toward reorganizing
and changing the direction of the Company in terms of moving away from low
volume fast food restaurants and towards high volume full service
restaurants. Due to differences in volume and the nature of the business, the
operating results, expressed as percentage of sales, can be substantially
different for fast food as compared to a full service restaurant.
In addition, over the past eighteen months the number of restaurants
operated by the Company has changed substantially as follows:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 26, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 27,
1996.
For the three months ended October 26, 1997, sales increased 4.2% to
$3,953,526 as compared to sales of $3,793,810 for the second quarter of the
prior year. As of October 26, 1997, the Company operated nine Amarillo
Mesquite Grills and two Cotton Patch Cafes as compared to eighteen restaurants
as of October 27, 1996.
Cost of sales, as a percentage of total sales, was 37.8% and 34.1% for the
1997 and 1996 periods respectively. The increase in cost of sales, as a
percentage of total sales, is the result of a change in direction by the
Company from fast food restaurants such as our Grandy's which historically have
had a 31.0% cost of sales to an upscale, full service restaurant concept,
Amarillo Mesquite Grill, which has a higher cost of sales.
Operating expenses, as a percentage of total sales, was 52.5% and 54.9%
for the 1997 and 1996 periods respectively. The decrease in operating expense,
as a percentage of total sales, is the result of operating more Amarillo
Mesquite Grills which have a higher sales volume and lower operating costs than
the Grandy's restaurants which were sold during the first quarter of the
current year.
General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total sales, was
9.2% and 7.3% for the 1997 and 1996 periods respectively. The increase in
general and administrative expense, as a percentage of total sales, can be
attributed to recruiting and training expenses relating to expansion of the
Amarillo Mesquite Grill concept. During the quarter the Company incurred
approximately $107,890 in recruiting and training expenses relating to the
development of management personnel for future restaurants.
The increase in the dollar amount of interest expense from 1996 to 1997 is
the result of an increase in bank debt relating to new store development and
the acquisition of four Amarillo Grills.
The Company incurred noncash expenses of $24,460 in the third quarter
related to the issuance of stock options pursuant to debt guarantees.

<PAGE>
NINE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 26, 1997 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS OCTOBER 27, 1996.
For the nine months ended October 26, 1997, sales increased 22.6% to
$11,405,950 as compared to sales of $9,871,000 for the nine months ended
October 27, 1996. As of October 26, 1997, the Company operated nine Amarillo
Mesquite Grills and two Cotton Patch Cafes as compared to eighteen restaurants
as of October 27, 1996.
Cost of sales, as a percentage of total sales, was 37.2% and 33.1% for the
1997 and 1996 periods respectively. The higher cost of sales, as a percentage
of total sales, can be attributed to the Amarillo Mesquite Grill restaurants
which operate at a higher cost of sales percentage than do the Grandy's or
Cotton Patch Cafes.
Operating expenses, as a percentage of total sales was 53.4% and 57.5% for
the 1997 and 1996 periods respectively. The decrease in operating expense, as
percentage of total sales, was the result of operating more Amarillo Mesquite
Grills which have a higher sales volume and lower operating costs than the
Grandy's restaurants which were sold during the first quarter of the current
year.
General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total sales, was
11.2% and 7.4% for the 1997 and 1996 periods respectively. The increase in
general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total sales, can be
attributed to recruiting and training expenses relating to expansion of the
Amarillo Mesquite Grill concept. During the first nine months ending October
26, 1997, the Company incurred approximately $565,000 in recruiting and
training expense relating to the development of management personnel for future
restaurants.
The increase in the dollar amount of interest expense from 1996 to 1997 is
the result of an increase in bank debt relating to new store development and
the acquisition of four Amarillo Mesquite Grills.
The Company incurred noncash expenses of $73,380 in the nine months ended
October 26, 1997, related to the issuance of stock options pursuant to debt
guarantees.
The Company has determined that it is in its best interest to focus its
efforts and financial resources on the Amarillo Grill concept. Therefore,
effective March 24, 1997, the Company sold to Red Apple Corporation all of the
assets of the eight Grandy's restaurants owned and operated by the Company.
Red Apple Corporation is owned by five individuals, four of which are officers
and directors of the Company. The consideration received for these assets
consisted of $435,000 in cash. Red Apple Corporation also assumed the lease
obligations associated with these restaurants. The Company recognized a gain
of approximately $254,000 on this disposition. The sales price was computed as
three times last year's store level cash flow before overhead or administrative
expenses.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary sources of funds to finance its business have been
its cash flow from operations, and proceeds from the sale of the Company's
common stock. At October 26, 1997, the Company had a working capital deficit
of $4,268,557 compared to working capital deficit of $2,230,451 as of January
26, 1997. The Company does have available $1,300,000 of unused funds from a
$5,100,000 bank line of credit. While the line of credit expires in June 1998,
management anticipates the loan agreement will be renewed at that time under
comparable terms.
Substantially, all of the Company's revenues are derived from cash sales. The
Company does not maintain significant receivables and inventories; therefore,
working capital requirements for continuing operations are not significant.
Additions to property and equipment represent the single largest use of
funds by the Company. The expenditures are primarily made for the purchase
and development of new restaurants. Capital expenditures were $2,530,183 for
nine months ended October 26, 1997, compared to $1,000,683 for the nine
months ended October 27, 1996. These capital expenditures have resulted in
an increase in property and equipment and a decrease in working capital.
7
<PAGE>
The Company plans to continue expansion of the Amarillo Mesquite Grill
concept in fiscal 1998. The Company intends to lease existing restaurant
properties which are suitable for conversion to the Amarillo Mesquite Grill
concept. It is expected that each conversion will require approximately
$300,000 to $500,000 for equipment and remodel costs. A ground-up proto-type
restaurant will cost approximately $1.7 million for the land, building and
equipment. New restaurants will be financed with proceeds received as a result
of bank debt.
The Company does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future, but
rather intends to retain all available funds for the development of the
business.
