Is Billy's Boudin the most successful restaurant in America?

Driving to Baton Rouge for work tonight and I decided to stop at the Scott location. It's always crowded but I assumed by 6 PM the line would've died down. Nope. Completely wrapped around the inside and drive-through out to the street.

Define successful.

His margins could be slim

I usually just walk in and get what I need. But I don't travel at peak tourist times.


I think McDonald's has done well for itself

Obviously I was being facetious. I am just amazing how busy this places every time I pass through.

It's way more frat than Parish and Andrew's weak arse for sure, atleast Billy will fight, Andrew is a huge pussy.

Best boudin is Bougeious, Billeauds, Hebert, and anyone looking to meet in a parking lot

I've seen a man (poster on this board) take Andrew's drink and not even apologize for it.

This was before Parish got big. Maybe Grand Reserve or South Coast was released.

Andrew was trying to score pussy.

$4.50 a pound boudin that may cost 1.50 to make?

I said "may" because that would be the most it could cost. Probably closer to $1.00

Isn't rough formula for restaurants 1/3 food cost, 1/3 labor and 1/3 everything else? Seems like Billy's is doing it right then.

And the last time I was at the Scott store -- on a Sunday, no less -- it was 39 minutes from walking in the door to getting my order and walking back out. Won't do that again (hello Krotz Springs and Opelousas stores, and F the Horace Wilkinson Bridge), but I'm happy for them.

He was cooking boudin and his books. A bunch in that area were and got popped.
