I hate how they changed Latil's after Jeremy Langlois left. The restaurant is now a pre fix amount of courses for one price, and the cosmo sorbet is gone. That was my favorite. ...
He is good dude. Never met a nicer Chef. Looks like this could be a much better fit than Ruffino's. Houmas house never been the same since he left. Hopefully this will just as good as when he was there. ...

So much spin in this article. Time with family? Yeh right. If you have to spell out how to pronounce your restaurants name on the menu, you already have a problem. Food was just okay, service sucked. I can't say I'm surprised by this. Everything Wadsworth does seams to fail. IPO Tr...

I don't like the Kickstarter. What happened to putting together and business plan and getting a loan? I don't think that it is fair way to raise capitol. Would love to have a quality place in Baton Rouge, but I won't put up money for a business for no return on investment. ...

Food in those pics look terrible. I have never understood how Wadsworth gets the press he gets. I went to IPO twice when he was there, and it was the worst meals I ever had. The food is much better there now. Didn't he run some type of charity? I'm sure that failed, too. Terrible name fo...

Does anyone here know, or have experience with any turnkey properties managers in Baton Rouge? Looking for recommendation. ...

Sriracha is what Chipotle pepper was 10 years ago. Something that was alway good, but now overused. ...
[quote]Was good years ago, now very mediocre[/quote] Unfortunately this is true. As far as The Carriage house. I went a month or so back. They were out of 3 of the 8 entrees offered on the menu. Not a good experience. ...
They changed Latil's completely since Jeremy Langlois left. Now it is tasting menu only. Pains me to say it, but I don't like the change. This use to be my favorite restaurant. ...
I think he as only been there for just under 2 weeks. He is involved in all of there operations. Highland, Lafayette and Catering. I would probably check back in in a month or 2 to see his influence. ...

I have gotten to know Jeremy over the last few years. He is a stand up, quality dude. I know his talents will benefit Ruffino's. I got to speak with him in the turle bar about a week ago. He said the staff at Houmas House is amazing and he doesn't see anything changing there. He seemed real excite...
I have one for over a year, and love it. It is a solid machine, just as good as one that I paid $799 three years ago, that eventually broke. ...

I was talking to the bartender for the Turtle Bar at Houmas House. They had a bottle of 60 year old Macallan scotch. Was selling for $1,000 for 2oz. Was told the whole bottle was sold to grooms men for a wedding for $20k. ...

Posted by tigerman191 on 3/20/15 at 1:32 pm
Just looked at menu. It is way overpriced. $30 for fried catfish and tarter sauce? $48 for stuffed flounder that does not even have crab? The most expensive dish on Peche menu is $29 with the exception of the 22oz Ribeye. ...
