It is this. We're all family. Cindy Hodges has been serving breakfast, lunch and smiles for more than 20 years. Before that, it was her mom, Pat, who ran the cafe. 24 years ago, my mom opened up a restaurant. I went to work for her and helped her and I worked two jobs for a while. The original Pat's Cafe was located at 7th and Margaret in Terre Haute. I worked by her side. She wouldn't let me work in the kitchen. She always said work out the dining room. And today Cindy still loves to be in that dining room with her customers. I go out here and I wait on all the people and they're all my friends. A lot of the people up there follow me from up there down here. They're all my friends. They're my family. I'm going to be back with a home cooking. Just ask Rick. Well, this looks fantastic.
