Man. Has it been 10 years already?

I wonder if Yvonne Cage mentioned in the first paragraph is related to former Rummel DB Pig Cage.

Exactly my first thought. I still remember when I read about the fire on this very forum.

I wish them every success but I won’t be helping them with my stomach. The last time I had a Hubig’s pie all I could taste was the chemicals. No regrets for aging out of liking them.

Not a tourist trap. It's wall to wall locals.

Stopping off on their way to their gumbo parties?

There were a few visitors there, judging by the Ravens jerseys. It was way too warm for the time of year but it was nice to do that again.

I don’t think Hubig pies are all that either. They will do well for the nostalgia in many people in the same way K&B vodka would.
