Roberto Rojas' Lodi restaurant is an interesting combination of
the various cuisines he's learned in the various stages of life:
Mexican, Italian and American.
Rojas grew up in Mexico and then lived in New York, where he
learned Italian the art of the Italian cuisine and also learned
what he says is the food Americans like, such as steaks and salads
(no, American food is not just hot dogs and ICEES).
