Have Tula and Blanchard's reopened? They were not offering curbside or takeout through all of this.

Blanchard's is but cannot get brisket due to the meat shortage.

Right, they are serving it when they get it. They had brisket on Saturday.

I don't think Tula has re-opened yet, I believe they were doing some renovations during the stay at home order.

I do not agree with this. It used to be good, but not the last few times I went. The building was also falling apart. I had gone from old and rustic looking to dilapidated looking.

Not a fan of the cracker crust or the over acidic sauce.

Frezzos is one of the places that charges a credit card fee. They started not long before shut down.

I really hate to hear that. I remember going with my family as a child after church sometimes. I know it was just an old school seafood and steak house, but I really liked the seafood gumbo, crawfish bisque, hushpuppies, homemade tartar sauce and their homemade house salad dressing. I used to drop in and buy the frozen bisque to bring home if I was in the area.
