O.K Foodies, if you’re looking for authentic Cajun cuisine, you won’t find better than at Bayou Delight Restaurant in Houma, LA ( really “off the beaten path” in Houma). It’s located on what locals call Bayou Black Hwy., which is actually La. Hwy. 90. The first time I ventured out to find it I got lost, but boy am I glad that I persisted in my quest for “real” cajun delights. Many restaurants boast authentic Cajun specialties, but you’ll know the first time you feast at Bayou Delight, that you’ve found the bona fide stuff.

Paul’s Pirogue
Feb 24
This is first of many posts that I will probably regret, but hey, Forrest forgot to say how disappointing some of the selections are when he said life was like a box of chocolates. I’m that man that eats the chocolate covered orange brandy nougat things without spitting them out, and still wants to talk about them.
I’ve been scoping out Paul’s Pirogue in Carencro for some time now. I’m a big fan of places that look like converted old time grocery stores (please stay open forever Roberto’s!) and when I first stumbled across the Paul’s Pirogue website I was pumped. The articles on the site (circa 2001) from the Times of Acadiana and Southern Living magazines spoke of piles of lump crabmeat at ridiculously cheap prices amongst other delectable items. On top of that, they promoted and sold their own homemade mayo, which makes you a winner in my book. As we pulled up, my salivary glands were pumping. Old time grocery store facade, nice lights, hand painted signs touting their food…oh yeah.
