PAUL NEEVEL RESTAURANT LISTINGS Cat Davidson Every Tuesday evening, the Sixth Street Grill draws a crowd for its weekly Burger and Brew special. “It’s a tradi- tion,” says Cat Davidson, who serves the bar side of the establishment single-handedly. “We do 400 burgers between 5 and 10 pm. What’s exciting for me is the memory aspect — people enjoy it when I remember their names and what they order.” A native of Knoxville, Tennessee, Davidson began restaurant work as a high schooler and continued through three years of biology study at Auburn University. In six years away from school, she paid off loans and moved west, first to Fort Collins, Colorado — “I fell in love with the outdoors” — and eventually to Eugene in 1998. “Sixth Street was the first place to offer a job,” she says. “It’s like a family — the managers and owners are great people to work with.” Feeling empowered after she quit smoking, Davidson returned to school in 2001 and graduated from the UO in psychology last June. Grad school is in her future. “Cathy is a genuinely nice and generous person,” says co-worker Heather Anderegg. “She treats every customer like a friend — makes them feel good.” CHOW!
