Cajun Comeback?
August25
Ralph & Kaccoo’s was one of our favorites eateries in town. The cajun menu and ‘blackened gator’ appetizer were worth battling Hwy. 280 traffic. For whatever reason, the food started to suffer, then the help started to suffer and then they closed sometime around 2000.
Pappas Partners, Inc. who run Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchens, bought the R&K property four years ago. They say they won’t even plan their restaurant until construction at the Hwy. 280/I-459 intersection is done. So I’m hoping my grandkids will get to eat their ‘blackened space gator’ there.
Does anyone know, was Papadeaux’s the big glass restaurant atop Red Mountain, that was destroyed by storms back in the early 90’s?
Wasn’t that Baby Doe’s? (I may be completely off on the spelling and the name for that matter - but in my defense, in the early nineties, I’d not ventured far out of Dothan. And at the time, it was a BIG deal that we got an Applebee’s).
Baby Doe’s is the winning answer!
Ahhhhh, that’s right!
Thank you both for setting it straight!
A Ricky McCord favorite.
