I prefer Parrains over Chimes

they are the same.


Ditto for Mansur's and French Market Bistro.

Well I've had Parrains maybe 4x and Chimes once. Maybe Chimes had a bad day, but for sure it wasn't as good.

I get that they are run by the same people?

Parrains. Get their turtle soup to go with it.

One of my fav spots!

I don't where the best are, but when I want them, I go to Mansur's. I LOVE theirs. They will sell you their sauce, also, if you want to bring some home.

I love how everyone is upvoting Mansur’s and downvoting French Market Bistro when it’s the same recipe / same owners.

I called about this years ago after seeing you post it and they quoted me $25.

I found a bottled version of Drago's at Rouse's at the beach and it was less than $10, I believe. Granted, it is a store version so probably not as good as freshly made, but everyone still loved it.

I never asked the price. Not smart probably, but I wanted it.

it is not that they are run by the same people, it is that all the premade items are made at Parrians and brought to the Chimes locations in BR. (salad dressings, sauce for oysters, etc. )
