re: My first Parkway poboy experience

Back to the topic, R&O's has a fantastic roast beef poor boy as well. Arguably the best.

You also can't go wrong with Guy's poor boys. Guy's also never skimps on the shrimp.

An overrated, but still very good poor boy is Crabby Jack's slow roasted duck poor boy. It's good, but they've got better on the menu. Check out the "fleur de Brees" poor boy next time. Woo...you'll need a nap after that poor boy.

The place that invented them calls them poor boys.

If I heard someone say poor boy here in Nola, or south LA in general, I would assume they are a tourist. If they were fat I would assume they are that douche Tom Fitzmorris

This is indeed correct. I deem it so

I’ve had better, but that doesn’t look bad

Pass on the gumbo and stick to the poor boys.

Indulge on the gravy cheese fries should you wish.

Or just old. My FIL lived there forever, still spends about half his year there, and he says poor boy. He also says wash as warsh so I think it's just a generational thing.

It's undeniable, however, that parkway, the originator of the damn thing, calls it poor boy.

I've kind of thought they aren't seasoned all that well compared to some others around the city.

I thought the same thing about their roast beef

I also like the shrimp though

Anyone ordering gumbo at parkway is doing everything wrong

My whole life is a lie.

I didn't know people got upset about if you used po boy or poor boy. The board should switch to poor boy just to troll that guy.
