you know---yrs ago when i was living and cooking in New Orleans, a group of friends and i would get together on our days off and go out into rural Louisiana LOOKING FOR A BAD RESTAURANT!--We never did find one! :)

That's because there's only good ones and really good ones!

When Emeril was the chef at Commander's Palace he would go out in the country and stop to talk to folks on their front porch resting trying to find good cajun recipes.

. Rolands Mini Mart in Bourg sells the most amazing crayfish pies. Big Mike’s BBQ Smoke House in Houma has ribs, brisket, everything you could possibly pull off a cow. There’s also Schmoopy’s in Dulac, which has incredible gumbo. Right near there is the Chauvin Sculpture Garden by the artist Kenny Hill. It’s filled with about 100 concrete sculptures: blue-skinned angels, red-robed knights, Jesus figures in jeans, towers and gates. It’s one of the most unexpected things you’ll see in the bayou.
