The code violations, which hurt their reputation, and cost sale leverage, then Beardens all semingly retired sans Ricky, who took a position with St Louis company Landshire which bought them.

Landshire sells preservative loaded Yankee convenience store stuff. Not the Southern Belle-esque finger sandwiches you are looking for. But, I believe Ricky owns a piece of The Perfect Platter, which has finger sandwiches and much more, call em.

Or just go to Calvin's AG, get Calvin's Chicken Salad & his daughter Kalyn's Pimento Cheese(it's great), and make your own.

My go to breakfast for a few years before they closed was a tuna or chicken salad sandwich ( sometimes both), a large Monster, and a pack of Marlboro reds.

Hated to see them close.

Fun Fact: The Tuna Sandwich was LSU BBall Coach John Brady’s personal favorite!

I know of 3 brands that were pretty good sandwiches in the NOLA area. Southern Belle, Mrs. Drakes and The Sandwich Man. I think only Sandwich Man is still in operation. I just saw one of their trucks last week.

My favorite sandwich was the ham and potato salad, but I don't remember who sold that. Next was the tuna sandwich.
