Before arriving in New Orleans I stopped and stayed in Scott, a small town in Lafayette Parish. I went over to a local restaurant Prejean's for dinner. Met Jake the bartender, who gave a couple great beer and dinner recommendations. Also met his lovely new wife Megan, also a bartender at the restaurant, and his brother Garrett, who also works there. I may now be an LSU fan.
Their generous spirit and friendliness made this lonely traveler feel right at home, and gave me a good feeling about the bayou. I hope I can return their hospitality one day.

Shrimp sassafras - Shrimp wrapped in bacon, and stuffed with pepper jack and tasso, then fried and put on crawfish sauce. |
Smoked duck and Andouille gumbo - Dark as mud, and wonderfully delicious. |
This post is making me so hungry.
