L.A. restaurant cries fowl over Chicago eatery's name Roscoe's there, Rosscoe's here pair chicken and waffles By Kevin Pang Tribune reporter Published April 9 2008 Of culinary unions, few are met with more exhilaration and skepticism than the pairing of chicken and waffles. On the same plate. The dish's folksy appeal has become a hipsters' reference point. Any Los Angeles native will say a visit to the city is not complete without a stop at Roscoe's House of Chicken 'n Waffles. So when Rosscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles opened March 15 in Chicago's Bronzeville neighborhood, the name recognition brought droves to the restaurant. There's just one discrepancy: This Roscoe's is spelled Rosscoe's. That extra "s" prompted Roscoe's in Los Angeles to file a federal lawsuit in Chicago on Tuesday against Rosscoe's in Chicago, alleging trademark infringement. A hearing for a temporary restraining order is scheduled for Wednesday morning. Beyond the name, there are other similarities: •Both restaurants' logos feature a cartoon chicken standing in front of a waffle. •Both include a drink called the "Sun Rise"—orange juice and lemonade. Both have drinks called "Sunset." •Both feature like-sounding menu items. At Roscoe's: Carol C. Special, Natalie's Special, The Stubby. At Rosscoe's: Carol's Treat, Ed Hale Special, The Saint. Said Herb Hudson, owner and founder of Roscoe's in Los Angeles: "We'll be suing them to the hilt." "He's got to do what he's got to do," said Darnell Johnson, owner of Chicago's Rosscoe's. "In a court of law, in a civil case, we feel we can win 9 out of 12 jurors. If they get the whole story." As origins go, there isn't one holy fryer that emerged from the grease. In "Fried Chicken: An American Story," food writer John T. Edge said the combination of chicken and waffles has always been part of the African-American zeitgeist. The dish was served at Wells Supper Club in Harlem, which popularized it in urban America. The club used the slogan "Wells: Home of Chicken and Waffles since 1938." But it wasn't until Herb Hudson established the Los Angeles Roscoe's that chicken and waffles on a single plate crossed the threshold from curiosity to chic. Hudson, a former General Motors foreman, moved to Hollywood some 30 years ago and opened up the first Roscoe's on Sunset Boulevard. The restaurant's success spawned four more outlets in the Los Angeles area. Enter Johnson. The real estate developer proposed to open a New York outlet of Roscoe's. Johnson said he offered Hudson 50 percent of the business. The deal never came together, so he ventured out, adding an "s" to the name and opening Rosscoe's East in Brooklyn. Johnson's restaurant launched in February 1998 and stayed open for eight years. But why did Hudson allow Johnson to use such a similar-sounding name? Hudson said he had no plans then to enter the New York market. And he didn't consider Johnson to be a threat. "I knew he couldn't do it. He'd flop there," Hudson said. In Chicago the concept of fried chicken and buttered waffles has had a troubled history. South Side culinary expert Peter Engler noted the casualties of three such short-lived restaurants in recent years: Antwon's Chicken and Waffles, Eat 'em Up Chicken & Waffles and Floyd's Wangs and Thangs. That didn't dissuade Johnson, who closed Rosscoe's East in 2006 and set his sights on Chicago. But when Hudson found out Johnson was planning to open shop in Chicago, Hudson opposed it because he was planning to bring Roscoe's from Los Angeles to Chicago himself. "I said, 'Hell, no,' " Hudson said. "You're going to mess my name up over there." Hudson said he hopes to bring Roscoe's to Chicago in 2009. When Chicago's Rosscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles opened, about 800 people showed up at Johnson's 80-seat restaurant, he estimated. Many waited two hours or more for a table. Overwhelmed, Johnson ordered the restaurant shut down at 6 p.m., five hours early. Regarding the lawsuit, Johnson said he doesn't even mind changing the name. "I would go to Chicago's House of Chicken and Waffles. I have no problem with that. I like that name better!" So why not change the name now? "Do you know how much money it costs to change? You see all those signs?" --------------------  |

This dude is a total ass. I hope the real Roscoe wins this suit.
Maybe I should open up my very own IHOOP. 
-------------------- As a woman in this day & age, I am in a position to ask a man what can you do for me that I can't do for myself?
I pay my own bills. I take care of my household without the help of any man... I am in the position to ask, 'What can you bring to the table?' I am not referring to money. I need something more. I need a man who is striving for excellence in every aspect of life. I need someone who is striving for excellence mentally because I need conversation & mental stimulation. I don't need a simple-minded man. I need someone who is striving for excellence spiritually because I don't need to be unequally yoked...believers mixed with unbelievers is a recipe for disaster. I need a man who is striving for excellence financially because I don't need a financial burden. I need someone who is sensitive enough to understand what I go through as a woman, but strong enough to keep me grounded. I need someone who has integrity in dealing with relationships. Lies and game-playing are not my idea of a strong man. I need a man who is family-oriented. One who can be the leader, priest and provider to the lives entrusted to him by God. I need someone whom I can respect.. In order to be submissive, I must respect him. I cannot be submissive to a man who isn't taking care of his business. I have no problem being submissive...he just has to be worthy. And by the way, I am not looking for him...He will find me. He will recognize himself in me. He may not be able to explain the connection, but he will always be drawn to me. God made woman to be a help-mate for man. I can't help a man if he can't help himself. I'm asking for a lot because I'm worth a lot. |

Either way I've gone up to the Chicago spot twice...the wait is too long for me. I'm all for Chicken and Waffles but they should change the name. My phone was off the hook for weeks before the spot opened talking about...yeah we have a Roscoe's in Chicago...no my friend you have a Rosscoe's.  Similar items but not the same menu. Had me all ready for a Sunset (fruit punch and OJ)

I find it my duty to follow the developments in the whole chicken and waffles game... as an avid consumer of such fare.
I was in ATL last month and made the mistake of going to Gladys Knight and Ron Winans's (that apostrophe s is correct, BTW)... wow... what a grand waste of an appetite. The chicken and waffles were "aight" but not like Wells, Roscoes.... or Amy Ruth's. I'm thinking Roscoe will win in court... and he should sue for costs. -------------------- Fellow Christians: There are souls hanging in the balance... what are you doing for Christ to reach them?
Ephesians 6:12-17 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.  "The global emergency approaches We’re urban theologians With the fervency of Moses." - "Issues" - Shai-Linne Jesus Others You Save and protect the family, at all costs... but never forsake the Cross. ********************** Bobby Byrd - Why you got to be so Funky?
