Austin Restaurants: Watch Out for ROMEO!!!
I recently had lunch at Freda’s Seafood grill on Pecan Park off 620. As I enjoyed the accent of New Orleans that Freda presents, I couldn’t help but overhear the lively conversation from a group of white-haired men behind me.They laughed frequently and appeared to be having a great time.
My curiosity got the best of me and I turned and asked if their lunch was a regular occurrence, “Yes,” replied the man directly behind me. “Our group is called ROMEO!”
He caught the puzzled look on my face. “Oh not that,” he said. ROMEO stands for Retired Old Men Eating Out.”
These guys had a great time. Freda says they are regulars.And I say why the hell not? Good for them. And, they are always looking for new members! If you’re interested in being a ROMEO email me at our web site and I’ll help you get in touch.
