Headed to Galliano to visit customers. Any good Po Boy shops or plate lunch suggestions? Wanted to pick up and deliver lunch.

Thanks

Roses in Golden Meadow.

The Twist has pretty good poboys if they're still around.

Mama's kitchen has good poboys and asian food

Bring Poboys from Harrys and everyone will be Happy. It's right before the Larose Overpass on 308.

Looks like it will be Harry's. and it is on the way. Will bring a cooler to keep warm.

Thanks for the help. I did try Google first, but not much showed. You guys are much better than Google.

thanks again

Where else can you get a soft shell crab poboy for $10.

Parenton's in old Jefferson has 'em for $11.

Harry's is good, but if you order roast beef to go, you will have a beefy bread pudding by the time you get to Galliano. So call your order in beforehand, and see if they'll give you the fixins' and bread separately. (and eat a crab pattie poboy for me.)

If you want to dine in, try:
Me-Maw's Cajun Cuisine in Golden Meadow; LINK
Mommie Jo's, which is in Cut Off; lots of fried seafood, gumbo, fried chicken
CherAmie's, run by the same family that operates Leeville Seafood Restaurant. LINK
There is also a newish branch of the Spahr's fried catfish local mini-chain inside a gas station in Galliano: LINK

Isn't there a place in Galliano, where it's not even really a restaurant, but just this old Cajun lady who cooks amazing food in, I think, her home, that you can get a reservation and go eat there?

Anyone know what I'm talking about or been there? It's like Aliza's or something?

I have never made the trip. On the map LaRose and Galliano look to be about a 15 minute drive. Is it longer? How about hwy 90 to Galliano?


thanks

Alzina Toups. I've been a few times. It is in her son's old metal building that was his welding shop. It's like $40 per person. Haven't been in about 3 years and she's up in her 80's. Her granddaughters help with her. Bring your own wine and booze. Great trip. We've taken chartered short busses.

Alzina in Garden and Gun

You have to get the whole place and go with a group. She isn't a restaurant and you can't just walk in. I believe 16-20 people are minimum. Something like that.

Here is Southern Foodway Alliance article

This has her contact information. Both of these are 2011 and 2012 so call her up and see if she's still cooking.

She stays booked with people from all over the world. She has a couple of groups from France that have been coming every year for like 30 years.

It's good old Cajun food. Not extraordinary but very well done. Gumbo, lot of shrimp. She cooked on her husbands shrimp boat.

Her son had the steakhouse above the gas station in Port Fouchon. Can't remember the name of it.

And some of those wavy frosted skinny brownies w/granulated sugar on the bottom from Dufrene's bakery. Or a chocolate layer cake w/sliced banana filling from Galjours.
