I do not live in Lafayette but, my entire family does. So, I have been visiting multiple times a year my entire life. However, I've only been to Lauras once in my 31 years...a shame. This past Sunday, I wanted to eat well and bring my great aunt something filling and soulful. It was only 11:45a so, I figured the time a day provided a great opportunity to try the famous " Lauras Two".
When I arrived, on Sunday, the line was just into the dining room--not too bad--but I did see a few people leave because of the wait. Trust me, though, this is the kind of food worth standing in line for! (And yes, I've heard the line can sometimes stretch all the way to the exit, so go prepared.)
I ordered the famous stuffed turkey wings with rice dressing, green beans, and sweet potatoes. Adding extra gravy on top of the rice dressing was a great call--highly recommend it! The turkey was seasoned to perfection, which is no small feat since turkey can sometimes be bland. Laura's Too, however, nailed it. Every bite was flavorful, and the sides were just as satisfying.
To top it off, I tried the featured dessert, a pecan cheesecake, which was the perfect sweet finish to an incredible meal.
If you're looking for authentic, well-seasoned Southern food that hits all the right notes, Laura's Too is the spot. Just be ready for a bit of a wait, especially on Sundays, but once you taste the food, you'll know it was worth it. Highly recommend!
