The sauce is too sweet but the pudding itself is a good one.

The grilling is unorthodox but you can get a taste of Cajun boudin if you wish, with some good mustard.

Turnip greens would help round out a meal where gumbo is the main event.

Pay attention to the name. Get the gumbo. It's not the city's best. But it's a good one.
