This was a typical Saturday in gonzales except I was ravished for a nice southern lunch, as my partner in the house had recently become lazy. The entrance to serving area was open and spacious so I could easily make my order with options visible behind a glass shield. The catfish looked appetizing and the beans/rice appeared as if they were flown in to Gettysburg for the surviving troops after Robert E. Lee was victorious. The price was decent but as a daily lunch, it would be unfit for my wallet at $11.48 (not including drink). Checkout was extremely fast because the cashier (who had her branded mask covering her mouth halfway), took 57 seconds to complete the transaction, impressive. I jumped in my 2005 Nissan altima, and raced home to where the feast would begin. The table was set perfectly and I started to dig into the meal. It was presumed that the meal would be delicious and worth another trip back next Saturday. However thou meal was surprisingly the opposite. The fish was harder to tear apart than getting Emily to Come over after a night at BD and the seasoning was so heavy that I could smell again after having covid last week.The beans were very simply prepared; what more could you ask, and the rice felt very rich as the starch seeped from its pores.

That is really gross and unacceptable, the owners need to buy/use proper ventilation in their store, if they did this would be a 4-5 star review. But for now, sadly I'll be going...
Read moreWATCH YOUR BACKS, RANDAZZO'S! I love, love King Cakes, and am always busting it down to Metairie from Donaldsonville on King Day for my King cake treat. No matter what the time, there is a line blocks long. WELL, CHILE! This year, I tried a strawberry/cream cheese king cake from Ralph's in Sorrento and had to cover my ❤️. Not only was it fresh, but the filling covered the ENTIRE cake. NO POCKETS W/O FILLING! I have found my new King Cake location. Furthermore, they are more economical, which will make it more convenient to ship to my friends and family. THANK YOU, RALPH's MARKET. See ya soon for my...
