Prolific Texas restaurateurs could save Lubyโs, Fuddruckers restaurants
SAN ANTONIO โ The Texas restaurateurs behind Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen and Pappasitoโs Cantina could swoop in and save Lubyโs, which earlier this month announced it would liquidate and dissolve the company. Lubyโs Inc. owns Lubyโs Cafeteria and Fuddruckers. The document states Christopher Pappas has served as the president and chief executive officer of Lubyโs since 2001. Both are owners of Houston-based Pappas Partners, L.P. and Pappas Restaurants Inc., which do not own Lubyโs. That restaurant empire does own Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen, Pappasitoโs Cantina, Pappas Bros. Steakhouse, Pappas Burger, Pappas Seafood House and Pappas Bar-B-Q.
