Zeeland St Market

Just got back from there for lunch...had the Jamaican Jerk pork chop plate with mustard greens, potato salad, baked beans, and cornbread. Delicious. Every time I eat there, I leave satisfyingly full and my afternoons are just that much better. I'm gonna miss this place when I leave BR.

Its my favorite place in BR. I have been a half a dozen times now and have always left happy.

Is it the best plate lunch in BR?

is it a sandwich shop/deli, or a casual dining spot (ie, sit down restaurant)?
I just added it to our guide

I ate there at least 2 times a week when I lived in Baton Rouge...easily my favorite place.

I usually hit it up for breakfast, which is really good. Its a very casual sit or plate lunch to go type of place. 6-8 black ladies cooking and singing gospel songs. I love it

quote:It's more of a sandwich shop/plate lunch place. You walk in, look at the menus on the wall (which are on dry erase boards), place your order with the cashier, and sit down in one of the many bench-like seats. They call your name shortly after to pick it up at the counter. The last few times I've been, a guy was playing some music on the piano and it adds to the laid back atmosphere. The cooks are wonderful and full of personality, too.

you need to venture away from the immediate I-10 and LSU areas.
Lots of older places with character when you go out towards Florida and Airline, near Exxon, etc. But, those are areas you kind of have to know where you are going.

Saturday's are always a mad-dash to make it out of bed before they stop serving breakfast. And I'm always right on the cusp. Even if I lose, I still get a great lunch out of it.

What time do they stop serving breakfast?
