| - I really wanted to like this place, but it came up short in every area. I should have checked the menu in advance. The name suggested that I would be getting cajun/creole food. No no no. It lacks any hint of authentic Louisiana food. No jambalaya, etouffe, gumbo, po boys, etc. The "beans" i got were more like texas bbq beans than red beans. The brie burger was... not very good. I can't blame this restaurant specifically, though. I have been told that Canada doesn't serve good burgers because of their limitation on undercooked ground meat, causing every restaurant to over cook all their patties. Still, I had expected the brie to be baked or melted onto the burger (baked brie is awesome, burger is awesome, you'd think they'd marry the two). However, it was a hard, cold slice of brie.
The service tried to be good, but it was obviously forced. Sunday midday, empty restaurant, weird asian guy dining alone. The service was as good as it needed, but there was no other substance beyond the bare necessity.
I may have to give this place another try, but I doubt it'll make my rotation before I leave town.
Oh, and a place called "baton rouge" should play the Saints game instead of some regional snow something or other. WHO DAT?
