If you could only go to one place, it'd have to be Poor Boy Lloyd's downtown on Lafayette and Florida streets. That place has been a Baton Rouge landmark for 4 decades (it opened in the 60's). However, although I've eaten there during the day, I'm not sure if it's open for dinner. The other awesome po boys I know of are at George's on Perkins right beneath I-10. Their kitchen stays open pretty late. I was there last week on Thanksgiving night watching the USC v Ariz St game, and my mouth is still watering just thinking about it
Good eats alone is worth the $20. I get to find out what everybody had for lunch and dinner, as well as print up some pretty good recipes. I'm trying the buffalo chicken dip for my daughters b-day next weekend.
The next time I make the buffalo chicken dip, I'm going to put half of the sauce. It was too overpowering to put a whole cup. I couldn't taste anything but the sauce.
Georges makes the best shrimp po-boys in town. Roccos for Italian and Italian saugase po-boys. The Pastime for hot sausage and hot roast beef, but it's not as good as the late great The Library.
Don't know about BR any more. Used to be Marchands in Gonzales though. Awww man...what I wouldn't give for a hot roast beef about now. Best they have here in Jax is Miami Subs...pretty good! :tigereye::tigereye::tigereye::tigereye::tigereye:
Rocco's. The one that was right next to campus closed, but I believe the one on Drusilla is still open.
