| - I was looking for a real po' boy, and I was so disappointed. Po' boys can be "sloppy" or they can have fried seasfood in them. I was looking for a fried seafood one, but that wasn't an option. So I tried the Chicken Zydeco one.
The taste of the meat was good. No complaints there. But if you are going to have a "sloppy" po' boy, you HAVE to have the right roll for the job. This was a fail. The French baguette is what is needed because the soft inside soaks up the juices, and the crisp exterior hold it all together, and prevents a mushy blowout. There was nothing crisp about this roll.
On the other hand, the only way I could have gotten the Voodoo Chicken in my mouth any faster is if I just tipped the Styrofoam container into my unhinged mouth. I got the po'boy for lunch and the Voodoo Chicken for dinner. I opened up the Voodoo Chicken first, so I gave it a try. Im a bit disappointed in the heat level, but that's just MY taste. For a place trying to cater to so many people, the spice level Im sure is just fine for most. Bite after bite after bite, I was eating it without a thought to stop.
The cornbread left a lot to be desired, but my Grandma and Mom made awesome cornbread. Im used to it being cooked in cast iron and having a slightly crispy exterior.
This review is meant to shine a light on the Voodoo Chicken, though. Everyone was right. Its really tasty.
