The Best Road Trip-Worthy Restaurants Outside New Orleans | Eater New Orleans
"Farm-to-table and Southern-style meat and three lunches usually don’t intersect. Which is exactly why Scratch Farm Kitchen in Lafayette deserves a visit. Inspired by memories of working on her grandfather’s farm, chef-owner Jamie Harson takes pride in showcasing locally grown produce in any way possible. She sources from Louisiana and Mississippi farmers, opting to make her own condiments, cure her own meats, pickle her own vegetables — anything she and her team can’t manage to craft in-house, they buy from local makers. Meat-forward dishes are accompanied by vegetable-rich and even vegan plates that ensure everyone feels welcome." - Sarah Bisacca
