Another Restaurant Folds

I have often thought trying to run a restaurant must be the hardest thing going. Dorothy has been real successful in her little cafe. Mainly because her mother was such a good cook and Dorothy learned from her how to prepare food that people would pay for. A lot of other people haven't done that well. Yesterday was the last day for Wok and Rolls, a restaurant set up and run by this guy who moved up from New Orleans after that big hurricane called Katrina. He started out with Asian fare and when that didn't seem to be working tried to modify it to Asian cooking with a southern twist. Catfish in a wok don't satisfy people around her like deep fried or even baked. Anyway for whatever reason he shut down his little operation. I never ate there buy several who had were talking about it at the barbershop this morning. One fellow summed it up saying, "Should have named it Wok and Rolaids."
