The Best Restaurants in Baton Rouge | Eater New Orleans
"You could be fooled into thinking Elsie’s Plate & Pie is a longtime staple in Baton Rouge, but you’d be wrong. Despite its old-school (with a touch of hip) feel and homestyle menu, Elsie’s (named after the owner’s grandmother Elsie Marie Campeau Rupe) has only been around about five years, but it’s made a major splash with its sweet and savory pies. For the former, it’s known especially for coconut cream, turtle pie, and skillet apple pie, and when it comes to the latter, a crawfish hand pie, Louisiana poulet pot pie, and boudin hand pie. It also serves comforting soups, specialties like red beans and rice, and excellent sandwiches, and has become popular for brunch." - Clair Lorell
