"In a town that harbors very few black-owned restaurants (and, among those, even fewer that serve gumbo), Louisiana Heaven is an important addition to the local scene — even when it’s tucked into the corner of a micro-parking lot near a grocery store that’s set to close. Come for the perfectly crispy fried shrimp and fried fish, as well as harder-to-find menu items like boudin balls (boudin blanc sausage and dirty rice rolled into balls and deep fried). The chicken-and-sausage gumbo has shrimp and Dungeness crab laced throughout. Shrimp and grits and oxtails are served Sundays only." - Illyanna Maisonet
