The good times are rolling again. That's right — The Good Time Charlie's Cajun Cafe is making a comeback. Longtime friend of the late Charlie Newell, the restaurant's former owner, Susan Conner, 62, is reviving the beloved Tallahassee eatery.

The food truck will operate under Conner's ownership using the restaurant's original recipes, trademarks and branding that Newell transferred to her before his death.
