Baton Rouge's Lost Nightclubs Reunite for Prom Macabre at Cary Saurage Center

Cary Saurage Community Arts Center — Venue For Prom Macabre. Baton Rouge's long-shuttered nightclub scene gets a one-night resurrection this Friday, when Prom Macabre brings DJ Prep back behind the decks at the Cary Saurage Community Arts Center for a dark retro celebration built for people who remember when dance floors in this city never seemed to close. The 21-and-older event starts at 8:30 p.m. on Oct. 30 at 233 St. Ferdinand St., with a costume contest, a crowned prom king and queen, and a soundtrack pulled straight from the city's vanished club era.

Brie flambée, breakfast plate and more of the best things we ate in Baton Rouge and Acadiana

After my son’s football game, I told him I would treat him to a restaurant meal. He is quite a foodie. We chose Pizza Byronz and ate European-style — after 8 p.m. and outside in the courtyard. I ordered the brie flambée, a French thin flatbread with a crispy crust with brie, fig sauce, onion and mozzarella. I added bacon for a little more salt and crunch.

Maison Lacour: Baton Rouge's Little French Cottage Off Harrell's Ferry Road

Some of the best date nights in Baton Rouge start with a turn off N. Harrell's Ferry Road and a walk up to a small cottage with white tablecloths waiting inside. That cottage is Maison Lacour, a traditional French restaurant that has been serving the city since 1986. It is a family story as much as a restaurant. The tradition was started by John and Jackie Greaud, and Chef Michael Jetty started his career there in 1991 as an apprentice under Chef Jacqueline Greaud. Along the way he met Eva, the restaurant's hostess and the Greauds' daughter. The two married, and today they run Maison Lacour together, keeping the family's traditions going while adding touches of their own.
