    SI: So what’s it like cooking for Lucinda Williams?

    JT: Yeah, she’s a regular. She’s a great customer, she’s taking photographs for her new record today. She asked the manager and the manager said, We never do things like that here. The owners never close the restaurant for private events; they don’t like to do advertising.
    SI: You don’t even have a sign.
    JT: Yeah, we don’t have a sign. I don’t even think we have business cards. Or even a website.
    SI: You don’t.
    JT: But it’s worked out for them really well. Lucinda Williams literally eats here four or five nights a week. It gets hilarious. I love that about customers. At other restaurants you always have one or two who come in like once a week, or twice a week. But they’re like four times a week, at least. But I don’t really pay attention to what tickets belong to what customers. A lot of people get wrapped up in like who they’re cooking for. Me, I don’t want to know. I want to make sure that every person gets the same meal.
    SI: If you’re going to have a regular…
    JT: She’s a really cool regular to have. Better than having some flash-in-the-pan 22-year-old who six months from now won’t be here.
