"Three different generations have simmered Laura Williams Broussard’s signature brown gravy, ladled over meat and threes since 1968. For years, folks from all over Acadiana lined up to taste Laura’s gravy. Now her granddaughter, 2025 James Beard nominee chef Madonna Broussard, is doing her proud at Laura’s II, which she opened more than two decades ago on University Avenue. A magnet for students from the nearby college and workers from the neighborhood, Laura’s II is known for oversized baked stuffed turkey wings, smothered okra, and some of the best rice and gravy in town. Don’t miss the daily special, from turkey necks to white beans and mustard greens." - Sarah Bisacca
