Meet the heart and soul of Ludi's Restaurant, the beloved downtown Seattle restaurant

It's a typical morning at Ludi's Restaurant. A line stretches out the door and onto Seattle's 2nd Avenue sidewalk. These folks come for the warm welcome, for the stacks of bright purple ube pancakes, the longganisa, the lumpia, but, more often than not, they come back to see Gregorio 'Greg' Rosas. "My dad is a character. He loves to connect with everybody here," said Rita Glenister, Co-Owner of Ludi's and Rosas' daughter. "He's like the downtown grandpa." Rosas has a way with numbers, birthdays in particular. If you tell him once, it's committed to memory. And he delights in meeting visitors from around the world. -------------------------------------------------- For more on the story: https://seattlerefined.com/eat-drink/... _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: KOMO News on Facebook:   / komonews   KOMO News on Twitter:   / komonews   KOMO News on Instagram:   / komo4   KOMO News on TikTok:   / komo4seattle   Subscribe to KOMO on YouTube:    / @komonews   Watch more top local news stories:    • Video   For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.komonews.com/ Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://komonews.com/watch Download our iOS App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/komo-...
