KOTTWITZ was a pioneer in the frozen food industry. His older brother, Bob, was a marketing genius. One of his clients was the Brennan family, who owned a number of restaurants in New Orleans. The famous brunch at Commanders Palace and their other restaurants is the brainchild of Bob. New Orleans had always had a strong dining tradition, and the Brennan family wanted to capitalize on it. Back in the 1950s Bob suggested that they do brunches since no other restaurant was doing that in the city. The rest is history. There's even a dish named after him: Veal Kottwitz, which has a butter sauce with artichoke hears and mushrooms.
