I will be in Ville Platte next week and looking for a few good restaurants. Give me the top spots in the surrounding areas.

TIA

Is the Pigstand still open? An alternative is to eat like a native...get a link of boudin, half pound of cracklings , and a six pack for lunch and/or dinner.

Also, see if the Jungle is open.

Pig Stand is closed. The Rendezvous (the old Jungle dinner club on the west end of town) is open for lunch & dinner. Lunch has a Cajun buffet & some menu items, dinner is a full menu of steak & seafood. There's a new pizza place on main st & Cafe de LaSalle is also a good lunch spot with a buffet. Hamburger would have to be Frosty Inn or David & LORI's in Mamou- which would put you in close proximity to T-Boys where you can pick up the BEST boudin in Louisiana & some great smoked & stuffed meats & sausage (boneless crawfish stuffed fryer & Tasso roast are AWESOME). Leroy's meat market also has good plate lunches. About 20 minutes out of VP in Washington is the Steamboat & they serve excellent steak & seafood. Other than that be nice to some ol' Cajun lady you meet & she'll probably invite you for dinner!

My folks said the pizza at nicks was delicious.

Personally, I'd drive to the steamboat in Washington. 15-20 min ride (depending on how many dragass's you get stuck behind on 167) for a quality meal.

The old Jungle burned a few weeks ago.

Wander a little farther south and try Josephine's in Sunset. Food there is always solid.
