According to the reddsinroslindale blog, Charlie Redd of Coda on Columbus Avenue is partnering with a second person to open up a neighborhood spot in Roslindale called R 'n R (Redd's in Rozzie). The blog entry indicates that the new eatery will focus on American dishes and comfort food, apparently including BBQ items, hush puppies, Island Creek oysters, baked fish, and doughnuts. A job post on the Craigslist site mentions that R 'n R will focus on locally-sourced ingredients and seasonal dishes.
We do not have an exact address for this restaurant as of this time; as soon as we do, we will post it here. [April 6 update: According to several sources, including the Eric Madsen: The Design Guy blog, R 'n R will be located on Washington Street in the space where Geoffrey's Cafe used to be (Geoffrey's has since moved to the Back Bay of Boston).]
Expect an April opening for R 'n R. [April 27 update: According to Universal Hub, R 'n R is now open, though just for dinner right now. Thanks to food and drinks writer MC Slim JB for posting this information on Chowhound.
