    I really love the idea they are encouraging to eat and read and having that book vending machine is genius. You'd think a place like Starbucks would have books to buy while you drink yet, here is a Po' boy establishment making good food and encouraging literature 👏

    Down the street from golden wings there's a newer joint called Crawlins. They also do boiled seafood (crawfish, shrimp, crab legs, etc.) but the po boys are top notch. Better than Melba's IMO. And if you just want straight up CLASSIC po boy, then Parkway is where you need to go

Great video, as always! The bread is native to NOLA, nothing like it anywhere else. And the shrimp is fantastic because it's Gulf shrimp, local to NOLA. None of that Chinese stuff. That gumbo looked righteous! Had the right amount of rice, too. Did ya have any oysters?

Mothers is where everyone goes it’s good but it’s expensive now and you gotta go there at 7am and get a black ham biscuit and grits with debris, you’ll be praising the lord right there at the table.
