| - Date night! And where shall we go? Cajun Queen of course. This restaurant is located in a beautiful, old house on 7th Street. Initially, we were seated in the very bright back room. There also happened to be a ladies' holiday party, and, you know how we gals get when we are having fun. Very loud.
So, we asked to be moved. We were told that there were no available tables in the other two dining rooms, but there was space on the rooftop patio. Huh? We didn't even know such a space existed. It was an unseasonably warm December night, so here we go, upstairs to absolute delight!
The rooftop featured retro Christmas music, holiday lighting and a most splendiferous view. We ordered a half order of the fried oysters to start. They arrived crispy, with creamy Ranch dressing. For our entrees, we both ordered the étouffée, his with crawfish, mine with vegetables. Both needed a little salt, pepper and hot sauce, but, after a little doctoring up, they were good. As an aside, I have had their vegetable étouffée when it needed no adornment. Awesome stuff.
And now, we shall request the rooftop each time. Weather permitting.
