After having a discussion about the best fried chicken in Louisiana my friend swore by Menard's…read moreCajun Grocery. I drove out there from Youngsville just to verify his claim and yes, confirmed, this is top tier fried chicken. I'm still partial to Danny's but Menard's is just as good. He said everything is good over there so I will be stopping when I can as I pass through there. Try it out, you won't be disappointed.

Well, this stop for fresh fruit, as in the name, and vegetables, strawberry daiquiri, blended…read morestrawberry smoothie, were somewhat confusing for this out of towner. My Bestie encouraged me and hubby to visit The Fruitstand for all things local. We did so after leaving the Crawfish Festival! I am totally here for trying new and local and excited to do so. However, walking into the front cashier to order a strawberry smoothie, and strawberry daiquiri to our surprise was told, with a glowing smile I must add, that all orders were placed in the fruit stand and picked up here at the bar. The fruit stand was located through another door or walk outside and enter from the side entrance into the fruit stand. Not an impressive. Not the cleanest fruit stand. Fruit Flies are calling the place home. There's an unlimited supply of empty bottles and dust. But the parrot is absolutely beautiful propped near the entrance to the fruit stand. Not only can you buy a variety of fresh whole fruits, corn, zucchini, cucumbers, tomato, greens, so many other vegetables. Purchase daiquiris here, other drinks, boiled crawfish, boiled shrimp, boiled blue crab, burgers, fried frog legs, fries, and raw crabs and crawfish by the bag, much more. The locals were extremely friendly. Talking enthusiastically while waiting in line. Hinting that if I'm here, I must be here for the boiled crawfish! Ha! Continuing, husband said his strawberry daiquiri was extra fruity and lite on rum. My smoothie was ok. Perhaps do as the locals, order boiled crawfish and beer! Eat in or take order to go. There were communal tables for indoor dining.

This is a very good little Cajun market. If Poche's is closed this is the next best Cajun market in…read morethe area. A great little Cajun market. One of my top 3 in the area. The Butcher here makes some awesome chicken & apple sausage. WOZA. The best way to have his Chicken & apple sausage is for breakfast with Bourbon maple syrup & buckwheat pancakes. You can tell him I said that ;) Anyhoo, he also makes some amazing seafood stuffed mushrooms. Yum yum yum. I want to drive over right now & get some of those. Last time I stopped by I got a whole giant pack of them, BBQ'em on the grill, then hubby & I fought over them till one bounced off the grill & the cat ran off with it. The irony. They are slightly different than Poche's stuffed mushrooms these have a whole shrimp on top of them. Meow! :)' My only complaint is they don't carry any fresh baked breads by Gambino's Bakery & that is a cardinal sin for a Cajun place. Come on y'all? Don't be cheap coonass's order the Gambino bread & I will update my review. Merci à bientôt.

Instead, I searched ahead on Google Maps and found that B&W Grocery had a lunch menu with a shrimp poboy. It was very affordable ($9 for poboy with fries) and was exactly what I was craving. I am very glad I took a chance on this place and will definitely be back!

C'est Bon! I was so excited to come to this Cajun grocery…read morestore! This store is located in Breaux Bridge, which is the crawfish capitol of the world, so you know it's gotta be good. Walking in, you can see that they are serious about keeping things cool- this is one of very few grocers that I've seen that sells huge blocks of ice, not little cubes in a bag, but big bricks of the cold stuff. Inside the store, you'll see all kinds of Cajun foods that you can't get in Yankee land. I enjoyed looking through their pre-made foods for their southern style cooking. Be sure to check out their sandwiches. Everything looked delicious! Someone makes them some of their local foods- I got some pepper jelly that was made especially for this location! The store was a bit dated, and not as fancy as some that you may have been in, but it makes up for it in charm. They have lots of the best Cajun brands, as well as some national ones as well. The prices were a bit higher than some other stores, but you're out here in the bayou, so it's hard to get. The clerks were friendly though. There's a small liquor store in the corner of the store. They sell all the national brands, but don't expect anything wild.
