ADVANCE FOR USE MONDAY, SEPT. 5 - In this July 19, 2016 photo, Melecio Martinez, the morning manager at Mi Tierra restaurant and has worked at the restuarant for 38 years, carries out an order in San Antonio. It all started in 1941, when Pedro Cortez and his wife, Cruz, bought a little three-table cafe at the San Antonio farmers market. Today, Mi Tierra seats 650 people in a vast space that has seen countless quinceaneras and graduations celebrated, much political campaigning and a little skullduggery, visiting celebrities galore and an endless stream of tourists from around the world.
