Drago Cvitanovich, well into his 80s, holds court at the end of his bar at Drago's, "Home of the Original Charbroiled Oyster," in Metairie, La. Son Tommy runs the place now, packed on a Wednesday night in mid-December as it is for every lunch and dinner six days a week. When Tommy Cvitanovich remodeled the restaurant recently, the only plumber he wanted was Vint Bienvenu, who spent 356 days there over a span of a 1 1/2 years. Meanwhile, Kirk Bienvenu and plumber John Loftis are installing a new master bath over at Tommy Cvitanovich's house, no questions asked about how much it'll cost.
