Rudy’s Can’t Fail (but my memory can)
9 July 2008, 7:34 am
subtitle (or excerpt)
Somewhat more than a year ago, a co-worker was leaving, and Rudy’s Cafe was proposed as the farewell lunch destination. I was way psyched, probably because the cod tacos sounded somewhat like the catfish tacos that Polly’s Cafe used to serve — one of my all-time favorites. We wound up going to Redbones instead.
