If you wouldn't mind, can you also post a picture of a seafood box if someone orders it?

I'm salivating over the thought of this after the report that your boxes are overflowing.

I'll be in BR next week on business, and I need something to dream about.

I think he said it's strictly to go at this point. The tables will come later.

Strictly to go. I plan on adding about 8-10 tables in a week or two.

I stopped by for the first time, and it was refreshing to see a wide variety of fresh fish over and above the standard shrimp and catfish of other local seafood stores. There were two different kinds of fresh salmon, grouper and fresh tuna. I'll definitely be returning.

A little better poboy picture with our homemade onion rings. Oyster on the left and shrimp on the right. And yes, this is how our poboys usually come.

I'm assuming that the propane tank out front is not for show, but you do sell propane? Another bonus!

Yep, it should be another 1.5-2 weeks and we will sell propane. We will also be selling bagged ice in a few weeks.

A few additions to our menu:

Blackened Gulf Fish Platter
Blackened Gulf Fish Poboy
Boiled Shrimp Poboy

Link to updated menu

And we can also cook any fish for our customers that is in our display case. In the last week we have cooked fresh sushi grade yellowfin seared on both sides and rare in the middle and also some grilled grouper.

WOW. Is that a half or whole po-boy?
I need to come by this week and pick up one for lunch and some fish for dinner.

Hey Jason, I just ordered lunch there for the people in the office. Chicken wings are good, onion rings are good, good amount of shrimp, but the only thing was that the bread was a little chewy. Just giving you a heads up, I will definitely order there again. Kudos for the good food!

Thanks on the heads up. I wasn't there yesterday but I will definitely check it out.

We are using Leidenheimer bread and it is tough to deal with I know that. You really only get one day or a day and a half shelflife on Leidenheimer bread. I love the taste of it but it does get a little tough after the first day. The reason it goes stale so quick is because it doesn't have any preservatives in it. Once it gets stale you really have to through it away. Not much else you can do with it except to make bread pudding.

Then it would make sense to simply use a different type of bread.

You obviously don't know anything about poboys then. Leidenheimer bread is THE poboy bread. This establishment is obviously trying to keep it as original as possible - without being in NOLA.
