I rarely come to a restaurant and forget to take pictures..... and I clearly forgot it on my recent first-time Mardi Gras Tuesday. But with good reason.
I was STARVING, and the food was SO GOOD, I.... just..... blanked. By the time I knew what was happening, all the dishes were done, and I didn't think taking pics of bones and rice bits would do the restaurant any favors.
First.... that Gumbo bowl. It was like sex on the first date, and you haven't even gotten out of the car yet. THAT good. Generous bits of andouille sausage, shrimp, crab, and chicken.... it was a foursome in a bowl. This should be your first dish. I don't care if you just came in for dessert. THIS is your first dish when you set foot in this restaurant!
I wasn't sure if I'd like the catfish nuggets, but you know what? They were the extra happy ending on top of the orgy started by the Gumbo. Crispy, tasty, and a generous portion, so a very high-value meal.
We also had the red beans, rice, and chicken sausage. My friend ordered this, and I wasn't sure if it was going to be all that. Glad to say I was surprised at just how much fun it was. The grilled sausage made it the perfect comfort dish to round out our meal.
If the Roman Empire and all its orgies were a restaurant, it would be Mardi Gras Tuesday. I will be back MANY more times!
