I live in Lafayette and work in Scott. I moved here a couple of years ago and I've been getting a bunch of recommendations for plate lunch stops. I've been to a few but I know there are tons I am missing out on.

I'd appreciate it if you guys post your favorite plate lunch place along with your favorite item. Thanks, I'll get it started.

My two favorites are:
Early's Cajun Supermarket: Crawfish Etoufe (their potato salad is also delicious)
Lauras II: Stuffed Turkey Wing.

That turkey wing is great.

Johnson's has a solid plate lunch, pork rib or anything else that day.

Olde Tyme Fridays during lent for their seafood plate lunch is great.

Champagne's grocery off of souvenir gate is the best in the city IMO.

Early's is the best kept secret amongst people who live in Scott...they let the touristy crowd go to places like best stop while they get their boudin from Early's.

I knew Wayne Hebert well and you won't find anybody more cajun than he.

Poche's if you are on the east side of town. Rabbit is one of the items on the menu for Tuesdays...

I've thoroughly enjoyed T Coon's the handful of times I've been there. I go to Laffy once a week and always take my crew to lunch when I'm there. For some reason, I've gravitated to the fish and shrimp plate lunch when I've gone there.

I did have an amazing burger at Coyote Blues yesterday though.

Noah's is right by you in Scott.

Shopping center on Ambassador right by Dulles.

Check out Cajans eatery in Scott too.

I use to hit that place all the time. The burgers and plate lunches were all great.

I don't get to go as often as I'd like since I live in BR now but Creole Lunch House (12th street near Surrey) has always been my favorite, try the chicken fricasse with a stuffed bread on the side.

Corner Pantry at the corner of Dulles and Foreman and Soops in Maurice. Both are good.
