I read in the Chronicle that the original owners of one of my favorite restaurants (Gumbo’s) were opening up another Cajun restaurant close to work. I just had to try it out. It is located near the Red Robin on Parmer and IH-35.

The recipes were slightly different. I wonder why. Perhaps there is a no-compete clause still in effect? They didn’t have the garlic butter served with the bread. And the dirty rice was blander. Not as rich and dirty. So I will stick with the original Gumbo’s.
