    Such cool retro signs for Rudy’s Can’t Fail Cafe.  Have you eaten there?  I’m fascinated.

      I did eat there and I enjoyed it. Luna Pie went nuts over their chocolate milkshake.

    I lived in the East Bay for 19 years, yet never noticed that place. Is it new? Otherwise, it’s a Can and Did Fail on my part.

    Be well.

    In Finnish this kind of name for a restaurant would sound really funny.
    Retro rocks! Happy Sunday!

    Love the retro look of the cafe. The Barbies are a nice touch. I like the angle you took with that shot.

    So is it true? The food can’t fail? The architecture certainly seems to indicate success.

    That’s where my niece used to live. Can’t say that I’ve been to that restaurant, though, sadly. Such a big name to live up to–That’s awesome.

    I checked Rudy’s out online, there is one in Oakland as well as Emeryville. They must know what they are doing, the reviews are pretty darn good.
