Good fried catfish at Breaux's, FYI.
Fried catfish not so good at Champagne's in the Oil Center.

There's a short film called, "Raised on Rice and Gravy," which features several local plate lunch places. Every time I watch it I want to go to Creole Lunch House. Still haven't made it there.
No love for Champagne's in the Saints Streets area? Co-workers love it, but I've only ever gone to the one in the Oil Center.
Where's Landry's?

I made it to Creole Lunch House one day last summer based on a rec by someone on here.
It's a quaint little yellowish house. Small. Nothing fancy on the inside. Just a friendly little mom and pop place with a limited menu.
I had the red beans and rice. Don't remember what else was on the menu. It is worth a try. Nice folks running it.

Antlers quite literally gives you a mound of food. I could have eaten the pork stew and rice and gravy over 2-3 meals.

Landry's: go north on Ambassador all the way to Cameron Street. Right on Cameron, then it's one block on the right.
Count loves this place. He raves on it as if he's a silent partner or something. I ate there once and was not particularly impressed, but would try again.

It's good but high as giraffe pussy, a lunch, dessert, and root beer was $17 if I remember correctly.
