Baton Rouge lost Albemarle this year.


That didn't take long. How long were they here for? 3 years or so?

This still surprises me. I thought Ninfas was a huge money maker for the Moran family.

Albemarle was here for at least 10 years that I can remember. A couple of friends worked there.

The proposed Houma International Airport was shot down after a possible study location in Dulac was floated. Houma really needs that daily flights to Dubai

I'll never understand the love Houma has for this place.other than it being the new place. Houma always loves the new place.

I had heard that but it isn't there yet. Their price point isn't good for this market right now.

And for BR, Malco's Salsa doesn't seem to be producing anymore. Kind of upset about that one.


He moved to Montgomery AL. His salsa was the shite.

Maybe it's because it didn't 'close' nor leave the family completely. Ninfa's rebranded as Javi's

Decent idea but not competitive with Canes

The Popingos in the Exxon at I-10@44 is the best chicken around there. Tenders are far better than any chain. Locals know this. Let the Passerbys go to Zaxbys and send tax $ to the AP. That's how I feel with Red Lobster and Olive Garden near I-10 in BR!

I didn't seriously pursue a job there (due to low pay) but I looked at teaching at St. Stanislaus straight out of MSU. Good school. I enjoyed my interview with them.

Burger King. Due to shitty owner and management. They closed it down about a year ago, reopened and now up for lease. The guy that owns it also owns a few in BR. been to two of them and they were shitty too!
