[Sca-cooks] Food liscense for Taverns?

[Tom Parr]

Shooting off the cuff on Tx law....

I belive it depends if you are selling the food for profit or
non-profit as to wether or not you need a license...

But I can't rember... one person that is sure to know is HL Calien On
Andred of Elfsea...  His address can be found on the chiugregons page
under emertis...
he has done both for profit and non prof in our area...

hope that helps,

Seamus
