You can get better / cheaper at a gas station around Laf.


Ok, I have seen this mentioned a few times now. Is it common for people in this area to go out to eat at gas stations or something?
Of course food of any kind is going to be cheaper at a gas station. I am thinking the prices he will be charging in Laf will be a little less than in N.O. also.

no but it is very common to pick up food at a gas station and bring it home to eat. the rest of the is less about dining out than nola.

Why do people automatically assume he's going to charge the same prices? If he opened up a restaurant in SoHo would he be charging the same price as he is in nola? I seriously doubt it. The guy is a restaurateur AND he's from the area, I'm sure he's aware he can't price out locals. This isn't the warehouse district, the cost structure is completely different, he doesn't need to charge the same prices. If he does and he fails because it is too expensive, he is a great chef and a terrible businessman.
