Mama Roux Forgives You!

Just when Mama Roux. our fabulous Louisiana-themed restaurant at Liberty and Broadway, was about to re-open after being closed for 150,000 years (it felt like) due to the COVID-19 crisis, some idiot smashed their font window. Did Stirling, the proprietor, curse the perpetrator? Did she seek revenge, or even restitution? No, she did something quintesentially Newburgh. She forgave him. At first I had no words for this response, but then two words did come to mind: “Amazing Grace.”

Can’t wait to visit Mama Roux’s new outside seating area and bar, adjacent to the wonderful restaurant at Liberty and Broadway in Newburgh.
