9 Louisiana Restaurants Where The Building Has Almost As Much Character As The Menu

One Louisiana restaurant shares its building with a working country store. You can grab a bag of chips on your way to a plate of turtle sauce piquant. I love that. It’s like your grocery run and your lunch date finally agreed to carpool. Somebody deserves a medal for...

That is not standard operating procedure at a counter-service wing joint, but Bayou Hot Wings on South Claiborne Avenue was never a standard wing joint. Two trained chefs, one of them a veteran of a James […]

Louisiana Legacy Sings Proud at This 38-Year-Old Houston Restaurant

At Zydeco Louisiana Diner in downtown Houston, 38 years of cooking keep Louisiana family recipes at the table. Co-owner Martin Venable, a Louisiana native, opened the cafeteria-style restaurant with two friends in 1988, after leaving college. His mother taught him to cook, passing along techniques he later used to make meals for his friends. Those friends encouraged him to open a restaurant, turning lessons learned at home into a business serving Houstonians. The menu changes daily, featuring dishes familiar around dinner tables in Acadia Parish, Louisiana, where those food traditions run deep. Options include chicken and sausage creole, seafood court-bouillon, jambalaya and crawfish étouffée, depending on the day's changing menu. Other dishes include seasoned baked chicken, shrimp and crab sauce piquante, and chicken and sausage gumbo with jalapeño cornbread. Martin Venable says some people drive past for years before finally stopping in, then quickly become regular weekly customers. The restaurant operated as a lunch-only spot before adding dinner service in 2016; many longtime favorites remain on the menu.

Oven-roasted teal is a seasonal treat. It might take befriending a hunter to get the ducks.

“When you get off the bus today, we will be driving down to Pecan Island for the weekend. Daddy will be teal hunting with your brothers,” said Momma as I was walking out the door to walk down our long gravel driveway to catch the bus. This was typical...

Cajun Tradition Meets Global Sophistication at This Louisiana Hot Spot

A weekend in Acadiana, exploring Louisiana towns like Mamou and Rayne, Lafayette and Opelousas, promises Cajun fiddle in the morning and zydeco frottoir at night, fueled by drive-through boudin and roadhouse crawfish. But a traveler can’t live off chank-a-chank and cayenne alone. Soon, a question forms: After you’ve dripped crawfish juice on your blouse and smeared boudin on your jeans, where can you go once you clean up for a dinner that’s less oilcloth and more white tablecloth, at a restaurant that serves wine in bottles instead of a joint that serves beer in cans?

This Louisiana Roadside Restaurant Serves Hot Dogs With A Big Dose Of Old-School Charm

Nectar cream soda is on the menu here. That pink, sweet, very Southern fountain drink still gets poured beside hot dogs, malts, and phosphates, and it makes me grin every time. I love a place that sweats the details. Retro wall art still reads Dearman’s Drugs, a nod to the...
