Most Houstonians are fairly well acquainted with the Pappas family and their popular chains of restaurants.
However, for those who are not, David Kaplan’s glowing Chronicle profile of the Pappas brothers and their efforts to resurrect Luby’s Cafeterias covers that ground fairly well:
Chris Pappas, 58, is himself a throwback, with his soft-spoken, no-frills, workaday demeanor. The Pappas brothers also oversee their family-owned restaurants: Pappasito’s, Pappadeaux, Pappas Barbecue and Pappas Brothers Steakhouse.
They follow in the footsteps of their grandfather, Greek immigrant H.D. Pappas, who opened restaurants in Texas and two other states.
A throwback!
So, how long before Tilman Fertitta demands and gets equal time for his popular chains of restaurants?
