La Brocolina at Sarrica’s is outstanding. It’s broccoli, artichoke and parpadelle. Very healthy and clean.

For a burger and baked potato after the race, Red Lerille’s.

I like the pizza at Domenica in the Roosevelt Hotel. They’re open on Monday.

Fish isn't considered meat according to Jewish Law.. (Catholic Law as well for that matter)

Salmon and cream cheese is considered Kosher.

Kicked out?


As long as you play by their rules, there's not going to be a problem. But to an outsider, from the South, they can come across very crass and condescending. Arabs and Indians, as well. Indians can be horrible.

Was kicked out of the last Jewish deli I visited just for ordering a ham and cheese sandwich with a glass of milk.


I was nearly kicked out of a Jewish Deli in New York because I took a photograph of the food lineup. They're very superstitious. The big guy in the kippah told me in a very loud way that if you take a photograph of customers in the deli, the customers will be in the photograph and not in the deli. I deleted the photograph out of respect and courtesy.. but I was like :crazy:

Orthodox Jews own a lot of the shops that sell cameras, computers, tv's and stereos in New York. The married men can't look another woman in the eye and when a woman walks in the store, they immediately turn their head and point, and either one of their kids or the token Gentile employee will wait on the lady. :lol:
Rouse's carries Cajun Country Toro.

Both are fairly similar in atmosphere, menu and whatnot.


You'll never see cheese on meat sandwich in a Kosher Jewish deli. You won't see pork sausage or pork bacon.. or any dairy mixed with meat. Jews won't "boil a kid in mother's milk". Exodus 23:19

Jews will never see or eat anything that's been cooked in lard.

Jews are also not allowed to eat any blood, so their kill/slaughter process involves draining all the blood out of the animal before it's cooked. They're also careful not to have any blood in their eggs.

Who's them? Ah.. NVM.. Google is good. Looks like Trahan's at Falcon Mill. :cool:

I like Cajun Country Toro. Very clean. Never found trash in it.. No black BB's.
If you're heading from Eunice to Opelousas on 190, on Vine Street, on the right hand side, just as you pass through Opelousas, is Des Meaux's. They're also very good. It's got a little more liver than Mel's. But I like Mel's better. I like Mel's about as much as T-Boy's in Mamou.
It's very good.. I think it's the best in Eunice.

Their presentation also looks very nice.
Thanks for this. I saw a Valentine's Day menu for a restaurant that I like in Newport, RI. One of the entrées is a Pot au Feu, a classic French stew of beef short ribs, brisket and chuck.. And I really want to find a good recipe to make one.. Maybe this will lead me in that direction.

I actually just got back from Ronnie’s. The line was out the door. I got a link of regular and a link of smoked and by no one’s standards can they be considered greasy.
Heberts is quality.. and they make good boudin. Looks nice.. Do they stuff it with a filling?
In that case, I’d just get some Best Stop refrigerated at Rouse’s and go with that. That should be fine.
Or get some greasy Ronnie’s.. and soak the grease up with some paper towels. You good.
I’m not affiliated with any store.. I’ve only met Ronnie one time, at the Boudin cook off. When I mentioned his store in another thread, where the original poster (if you read the entire post) said his specialty is boudin and charcuterie and he’s looking to start a small business and was looking for suggestions. I referred to Ronnie’s because he’s a small producer in the same field.

Funny.. I’m not a fan of Best Stop’s or Kartshner’s boudin.
