I have a client coming in next week for a series of meetings. He has pre-requested that I take him to eat “Cajun food.”

I am honestly at a loss on this. Not something I ever go out to eat and cooking for him at home isn’t an option as my house is being renovated. Where can I take a client for good food and some drinks?

When he said cajun, what did he have in mind? Does he know cajun food or is he looking for Louisiana food since he is from out of state?

He clearly said Cajun which is what threw me. If he wanted LA food I could pick a place. As per the poster above, that “isn’t that hard.” But I did appreciate him kind of being a dick about it. Take that shite to the OT big man.

Roberto's should fit the bill as suggested.

I haven't been to Roux 61, but doesn't it serve some Cajun dishes?

Speaking as someone from outside of Louisiana, before reading this board if I said "Cajun food" that would have included Creole, Cajun, New Orleans fair, anything from Louisiana. I learned the difference between them all here. I'm guessing your friend meant the same

Yep, I’m also from out of state and anyone who says “Cajun food” just means food from LA. King cakes, oysters, muffulettas, gumbo, and everything in between is all considered Cajun food to them

Parrains or Chimes would fit the bill.
