Biscuits in Baton Rouge

Can someone recommend someplace that makes really good biscuits in Baton Rouge? If they're even half as good as Country Kitchen in Bossier City, I will be thrilled!

The chicken biscuits on Saturday afternoon at Chelseas are legit.

Well I've been looking for 48 years and I haven't found the right one. I don't like a bisquit that falls apart. I like the flaky, peel apart like the Pillsbury cans. If someone can tell me where I can find a homemade like that I'll buy them a car.

I agree, I have had much better luck with the Pioneer mix. As much bread as I bake, I have never nailed down biscuits.
I don't get the BR love for Frank's, been many times for a networking breakfast, biscuits, and all the other breakfast fare is mediocre at best.

try mixing half pioneer, half self rising, pretty good texture, if you like a flaky, but still light biscuit..

Thanks for the answers. I might try making my own, since one of you assured me that it is easy! (It would HAVE to be, for me to do it. LOL!)

My recipe for about 6-7 biscuits.
Mix
2 cups flour
4tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
Rub in 3 tbsp butter and 3 tbsp crisco, lightly work it in.
Make a well and pour in 10 oz buttermilk, mix with a spatula until everything is combined. Mix as little as possible.
Pour some flour out onto a board. And form mix into a ball of dough coating all sides with flour.
Flatten out until an inch thick, fold in half, sprinkle a little flour on top. Repeat 4 more times.
Flatten it out again then use something round to cut out the biscuits. 17-20 minutes at 450, until golden brown.
The key to the whole process is to work the ingredients as little as possible.

I was just perusing Mason's brunch menu, and it's showing that they offer biscuits and gravy, although I've never had them there.
