Lasyone's Meat Pie Kitchen

622 Second St., Natchitoches, LA - (318) 352-3353
James Lasyone’s Natchitoches meat pie is a vividly seasoned mélange of pork and beef enclosed in a half-circle pastry crust. It is deep fried until the crust is golden crisp and the moist, seasoned meat inside is steaming hot. Be sure to conclude your meal with a piece of Cane River cream pie -- a variant of Boston cream pie, but with gingerbread instead of white cake.

Even though a cup of gravy comes with your meat pie, the pork/beef mixture is moist enough that the gravy is unnecessary. That is dirty rice on the side.

Named after the local Cane River, this dessert alone is worth a detour to Natchitoches.

Natchitoches is famous for their annual Festival of Lights. Lasyone's also decorates for the season.

The streets of Natchitoches are rich with history. Lasyone's is a vintage eatery that fits right in.
