Suires for a plate lunch or if you have to stay in Kaplan Mickeys is solid.

So I ended up with an Oyster poboy both days from both places. (some might say a noob move, but I didn't want a plate lunch or anything). I have to say, I cannot understand how places so close to the coast can screw up on the poboy bread. Both were served on what looked like oversized hot dog buns. Just glad I don't have to come back tomorrow (no offense to Kaplan!)

The food at restaurants, along with everything else is pretty terrible in regards to Kaplan. Should have taken advice and driven to Abbeville for food.

Very much a rookie mistake thinking you would get a good po boy in that area. I would go to Shucks or Dupuys in Abbeville for good fried seafood. Can't comment on the bread though. That area is known for its gumbos, étouffée, sauce picante, etc... If you went to Suires and didn't try the seafood stuffed pistolettes or the turtle sauce picante you missed out.

Growing up one town over in Gueydan, I can say Poboys were never a big part of the family or area culinary scene. They are much more a New Orleans thing in my experience. The poboys you get around there are not on crusty french bread, but softer bread. I think that holds true west of the Atchafalaya. BR is a little bit of a hybrid with availability of Leidenheimer bread, but getting a good poboy here is still near impossible.

Should have gone to Shucks and gotten their fried shrimp. You'd be a happy camper for sure.
