I prefer Best Stop but none of the above are bad. I like all of them.

My father opened up Richard's Big Burger back in the 50's. He also owned one in Port Barre and Krotz Springs. That was back in the day when hamburgers and malts were made with quality ingredients, not the shite you get at McDonalds.

Okay, they have boudin and boudin balls, but do they have the pepperjack/boudin rolls? Nope

Billy's wins

Now we are talking old school Opelousas.

ETA: I guarantee our dads knew each other.

Remind me. That was on the north side of 190 just west of the courthouse, right? Adjacent to a concrete coulee?

I think that place you are referring to was the "Little Chef" restaurant - next to Dairy Queen. If I'm not mistaken.

Those are not as good as it seems they should be. I love me some boudin and some boudin balls, and usually cheese makes everything better. Not in this case.

I can eat like 30 of them. You have to eat them hot, while the cheese is gooey
