Re-grand opening
at T’s Cafe Friday

When co-owners 'l‘heresa and
Rick Landsiedel opened T’s Cafe
at 118 Third St. in Shelton,
they had one week of table ser—
vice before they had to shift en~
tirely to a delivery-only model.
but that didn’t deter them.
“I have always told people,
we can get there from here,"
Theresa Landsiedel said. “We
had already planned to other
deliveries, and we got hit with
so many that it floored us. We
actually had to hire more staff
to keep up, and even though
our business traffic has slowed
down since then, we have not
been closed for one day.”
The Landsiedels are accus-
tomed to toughing it out, having
bided their time for six years,
waiting tor the opportunity to
open their own cale.
For the past half-dozen years,
the couple has collected unique
curios and knicknacks to deco-
rate the establishn'ient they
both hoped to start, and in the
past three years. they’ve got—
ten more serious by snapping
up bigger—ticket: appliances and
storing them in their garage.
Bel'ore they moved into their
current location, the Landsie—
dels managed to acquire a two—
door commercial refrigerator. :1
display case, an espresso ma~
chine and grinder, and a sand—
wich and deli preparz‘ltion ma—
chine.
“We waited until we’d already
moved in to order the exact size
of shelving we would need,” The-
resa said. “By sheer r_:oincidence,
we found this place had three
appliances we didn’t already
have; a range hood, an oven and
grill, and a three-compartment
sink."

kitchen, while husband Rick is a
handy machinist who’s already
put his skills to good use on
seine of the secondhand equip—
ment at T’s Cale.
“He was able to take apart
our used espresso machine, re—
place its parts and put, it back
together, all with no manual,”
Landsiedel said. “And I‘ve al—
ways loved customers and tak—
ing care of people. I like making
people’s lives better, and I’m
passionate about col'l'ee.”
In the months T’s (late has
been open, Landsiedel has kept
track ol‘ which menu ollerings
are her customm's~ favorites,
from the California club for its
bacon and avocado, and the chiv
potle. turkey for its homemade
chipotle sauce combined with
another round of avocado, to the
Lumberjack with dijon mustard
and mayonnaise (“an amazing
combo”), and the B—Master with
horseradiin sauce and mayo
(“like a prime rib").
liandsiedel acknowledged
that. “comfort food“ might be
a slightly overused term, but
it’s one she deemed accurate in
describing the purpose of her
menu’s ollerings.
“We grill all our sandwiches,
although you can order them
without them being grilled,"
Landsiedel said. “And we not
only make all our own sauces,
but also make our own butter—
milk and chipotle ranch dress-
ings.”
T’s late plans to celebrate
its reopening in conjunction
with National Cheeseburger
Day with an 11:30 a.m. Friday
ribbon—cutting, introducing a
cheeseburger to the establish—
ment’s menu, as well as serv—
ing up samples of mini—danishes
and London Fog iced tea.
“We made 140 box lunches tor
the PUD picnic, so we can han—
dle those orders,” said Landsie—
del, who encouraged customers
to call 'l"s Cafe at 360—462—1888.
