Glad to see so many BR restaurants using the freshest frozen Chinese tilapia, and proudly highlighting it on their Restaurant Week menus. The elite dishes next week not to be missed are....
Serrano's Salsa Company
Serranos famous fish tacos
Grilled or fried Tilapia, topped with sliced avocados, cabbage, pico de gallo, cheese, serramoulode and cilantro avocado salsa
Bonefish Grill
Bayou LongfinTilapia
Blackened and sautéed in a classic spicy creole sauce served over garlic whipped potatoes
Mestizo
Fried Tilapia
Topped with shrimp and crab
Monjuni's
Pan Seared tilapia
Tilapia fillet pan seared and topped with seafood sauce and served with asparagus
Make sure to get out there and have these can't miss dishes

BR can be such a joke. The freaking gulf is two hours away and our restaurants are serving tilapia? shame.

Wow, all I can say is that those are 4 reastaurants I wouldn't frequent even on restaurant week.
Also two of those aren't really BR restaurants, just toting the company menu.

Can be?
Was.
Is.
Fact. Not one really good seafood market there, and don't say Tony's.

tilapia sums up all of Br's dining issues in one word

Yep. And the real joke is that the Baton Rouge locals probably pack these places every night of the week.

What would it take for a creative, fresh seafood place like Peche to come in to BR?

Baton Rouge local is kind of a misnomer. Everybody I knew in that town was from another state for the most part.

Baton Rougeans probably consume tilapia at the highest rate in the world. We are keeping children in China employed, having fun in their sewage filled tilapia swimming pools
But if we all complain everytime we see this on a menu, we can probably end this plague one day.

I hate the fact that tilapia is used so damn frequently in BR. But it's not hard to find other fresh fish dishes in BR.

a market for it

I don't think Baton Rouge eats any more tilapia than most other US cities. Tilapia is something like the third largest aquaculture fishery in the world. We just pay more attention to it around here because we have the ability to demand affordable local fish. People that don't live on or near the coast don't have that option.

not sure what you're talking about. outside of LSU students, the vast majority of folks in Baton Rouge were either raised there or have lived there 5+ years after college. that's a "local" by every definition.

That's what makes it so sad. This isn't a huge deal in Nebraska. But a couple hours from the Gulf coast? That's a fricking joke.

^yep. Money. Tourism. Awareness. Etc.
There's a market for it, but its smaller than most major cities obviously.
