Christ, not Boutins.

Parrain's is my vote. I love that place.

Gumbo and poboys at Dempsey's too. Not biased or anything

That is a hard one.

If it's not too far take him to Houmas House. I also like Louisiana Lagniappe. Mike Anderson's if he likes fried food.

Let's see what others say.

He said he wants "andouille sausage and all that other louisiana stuff"

Fwiw: he lives in destin.

Latil's Landing at Houmas House if you don't feel bad about him shelling out some money. Poche's in Breaux Bridge would be well worth the trip if you're up for a great plate lunch.

Go to Ronnies for some boudin and cracklin. Poches for a plate lunch. Bellue's also for plate lunch.

Sitdown place.. La Lagniappe for seafood. Parrains is fine too for more casual.

Could also try:

Acme
Mansurs

Problem with LA Lagniappe is that he is from Destin where there is a location.

If you are not worried about a sitdown place and he wants cajun style food look up the address to Ronnies Boudin and Cracklin and Poches (which is inside Boutins) Dont eat at Boutins though.
