Tom and I are overwhelmed by the love and support we have received over the past 30 years and most recently as we end this chapter in our lives. We are extremely excited about passing the torch to Tim and Alex. We are also appreciative of their friendliness and compassion towards us and the community as this transition takes place.
There are two incredibly special people who need to be included in all the notoriety of the success of the Rendezvous – Kathryn Bliss and her husband Joel Swink.
From the beginning, when we ran the ad reading “Tom & Susie Anderson and Kathryn Bliss are expecting a restaurant,” a partnership with amazing promise was unfolding.
Kathryn’s incredible culinary “back of the house” talent combined with Tom’s equal talent for running the “front of the house” operations and taking on all the office details, made The Rendezvous the success it is today.
Kathryn retired after 20 years with The Vous, and her legend lives on in so many of the recipes and desserts she created.
Her husband Joel built most of the interior of the restaurant and was called upon countless times over the years to fix one thing or another.
Kathryn was the one to find the bowling alley lane for sale that became the top of the bar! Next time you’re in, look for the pin marks on top!
Once again, thanks to all our “Vous” family and thank you Kathryn and Joel!
Tom and I look forward to seeing you all on the other side of the counter now as we move forward in life!
Cheers !
Susie and Tom Anderson
Former owners of The Rendezvous
