You gotta see the video.

Gourmet chef Franson and his wife Paula Nwaeze chose an unusual place to open an upscale Fort Worth restaurant.

A Conoco gas station in Watauga, TX.

How the Chef Point Café came to be there is a funny story of perseverance and creativity.

Quirky and fun, Chef Point Café’ has as its motto: Fill'er-up outside, fill'er-up inside. While you relax and await one of the chef’s signature dishes, you’re welcome to thumb through the latest issue of Auto Trader or buy a scratch off lotto ticket.

But don’t expect the usual convenience store fare.

A mixture of hearty American comfort food and Italian cuisine, the Chef Point Café menu includes such delectable culinary creations as crab cakes topped with roasted bell pepper, lobster bisque, and grilled sea scallops in garlic butter.

And don’t you dare visit the Chef Point Café without tasting the bread pudding smothered in hot cognac sauce, the bread pudding voted best among Fort Worth restaurants.

5-star at a gas station?

Wonder if the prices are 5-star or conoco.

Will that be a domestic or imported slushy?
