Grandma informed her daughters (now in their 60s) that she forever despised liver and all those years she served liver to her daughters, grandma was, in fact, eating a ribeye. I always liked grandma’s style.

June 18, 20214 yr Luby’s has agreed to sell its 92-unit Fuddruckers fast-casual brand to an affiliate of the chain’s largest franchisee, Black Titan Enterprises, in a buyout deal with a potential value of $18.5 million. The Back Titan affiliate has also agreed to buy the land underneath what are now company-operated Fuddruckers units. The details of that transaction, including the price, were not disclosed. The sale of the restaurant chain is the latest step in Luby’s liquidation, which was announced in September after the cafeteria operator failed to find a buyer. Luby’s main business is its namesake cafeterias, including four that are paired with a Fuddruckers. Luby’s said it will hang onto those four Fuddruckers, as well as five standalone units. The parent of Fuddruckers’ intended buyer, newly formed Black Titan Franchise Systems, already owns and operates 13 franchised restaurants and plans to acquire two more. Both Black Titan entities are controlled by Nicholas Perkins, who also has a foodservice management company, Washington, D.C.-based Perkins Management Systems. That operation runs the foodservice operations of colleges, healthcare institutions, government facilities, offices and factories. It also provides catering for sports and entertainment events. Perkins will serve as CEO of Black Titan Franchise Systems, or BTFS, as he does for Black Titan Enterprises and Perkins Management Systems. The deal announced Thursday by Luby’s calls for Black Titan Franchise Systems, or BTFS, to provide Luby’s with a note for most of the $18.5 million transaction price. Luby’s said it cannot guarantee the value will remain at $18.5 million, but the public company is not adjusting its projections of what its liquidation will fetch. Luby’s said it contacted 150 potential buyers before accepting Perkins’ bid, the highest in the batch. "As a Fuddruckers franchisee, I have a vested interest in ensuring that all Fuddruckers franchisees have the resources, infrastructure, and operational and marketing support they need to maximize their return on investment,” Perkins said in a statement. Luby’s has yet to find a buyer for its cafeterias and its contract management company, Luby's Culinary Contract Services, which competes in several of the non-commercial segments served by Perkins Management Systems. Fuddruckers was a pioneer of fast-casual dining. It was created by Phil Romano, also the father of Romano’s Macaroni Grill and Eatzi’s, as a place where consumers could get a better burger than what they would find at a typical fast-food restaurant. The burgers were made to order, and early units featured a butcher shop and bakery. Luby's said it expects the deal to close within 90 days.
June 18, 20214 yr I had Fuddrucker’s on Sunday afternoon with my wife and kids. I’ve never understood why they get a bad rap. The burgers are always good and so is everything else. There are a bunch of “craft” burger joints that I’ve tried and almost always felt like they were just okay or worse. Good news in any event.

Yep. I don't get any hate for Fuddruckers. Have always liked it. Especially when we had young kids. We could go, and make them happy, and we could also get a damned good burger, and just relax for a bit. It was a good meal, but also at someplace not so fancy that people looked at you funny if your kids made a racket. And even after the kids got older, it wasn't so out of control that you couldn't just enjoy a good burger on your own.

June 18, 20214 yr I work with quite a few Generation Z food snobs. I think people don't like Fudd's for the following reasons: - The goofy ass name. - It's a chain. Anything that's a chain can't be good in some people's opinion. They fail to understand or acknowledge Hopdoddy is also a chain. - No craft beer or cocktail selections. - Complete lack of handlebar mustaches on staff. - Pretty tame ingredients. - No one is going to like a Fudd's burger on Instagram.
June 21, 20214 yr Houston-based Luby's Inc. (NYSE: LUB) announced June 21 that it will sell its Luby's Cafeteria restaurant business — but not any real estate — to a newly formed affiliate of Calvin Gin. The deal is expected to be valued at approximately $28.7 million, almost all of which will come from the buyer's assumption of Luby's liabilities and issuance of notes to Luby's. Although there's no guarantee that entire value will be realized, Luby's doesn't expect the deal to have an impact on its estimated liquidation value. Whatever value is realized from the deal will be in addition to the value Luby's will get from selling company-owned real estate, the Houston-based restaurant group said. The deal is expected to close before Luby's current fiscal year ends Aug. 25. The buyer is a newly formed affiliate of Calvin Gin. He is a member of the Gin family who established The Flying Food Group, the third-largest airline catering company in North America. The Flying Food Group's clients also include Starbucks and other companies. Calvin Gin has held several roles with the Flying Food Group, including vice president for its Starbucks business unit, and has more than two decades of entrepreneurial experience. He previously was CFO for Blue Plate Catering Ltd. and Applause Food Services Inc., and he currently is a co-founder or partner in several entities, including Helios Visions, WorkPlate and Charming Studios. The new affiliate will acquire the Luby's Cafeteria brand and the businesses of the following 32 restaurants, all in Texas: Austin – East Anderson Beaumont – Interstate 10 East Brownsville – Sunrise Mall Conroe – Longmire Corpus Christi – Saratoga Blvd. Dallas – South Hampton De Soto – North Beckley El Paso – Hawkins Blvd. Fort Worth – Forest Hill Harlingen – South 99 Sunshine Strip Houston – East Freeway Houston – 730 West FM 1960 Houston – Fuqua Houston – South Mason, Katy Houston – Meyer Park Houston – 11250 Northwest Freeway Houston – 19668 Northwest Freeway Houston – Spring Cypress Houston – Veterans Memorial Houston – Westminster Plaza Kingwood – Highway 59 Laredo – West Calton Road McAllen – North 10th Street Pharr Port Arthur – Highway 73 San Antonio – Floyd Curl San Antonio – Fredericksburg Road San Antonio – Las Palmas San Antonio – West Loop 1604 North San Antonio – S.E.

June 21, 20214 yr Houston – 11250 Northwest Freeway Holla!! That's good news for me and my Luby's crew including Joanne, Connie, Maritza, Vicki, Mary J. and Maria.
June 21, 20214 yr Oh happy day. May need to go to Luby's later this week to celebrate its new lease on life.
June 21, 20214 yr So the Luby's/Fudrucker's combo on Cinco Ranch Blvd in Katy didn't make the cut. Bummer. I noticed on Saturday that they appeared closed, and the grass was high.

It's really close to the Cameron Rd. bridge homeless takeover. My only guess is they don't own the land at the Steck location and the rent is cheaper at Anderson.

Dammit.
June 22, 20214 yr Nothing wrong with the E. Anderson Luby's. I've eaten there many times. The food is good. Location sucks.

June 23, 20214 yr Maybe some of those not on the list will go rogue as Loobie's or some shit...and maybe be the same or better.

June 23, 20214 yr I was a teller for a couple years at Public Employees Credit Union while going to school 96-98. Lots of lunches at that E Anderson location. And lots of breakfast tacos at Ken's.

There was a little joint around the way from my warehouse over by Delmar Stadium in Houston that was a micro version of Luby's. They cooked up a bunch of stuff that was actually pretty good and served it out cafeteria style. It was in business for about 5 years and we dubbed it "Fake Luby's." /csb

It works better than butter.
