There’s nothing better than a homecooked meal, but you don’t always have the time. After working all day and taking care of all other responsibilities, getting in the kitchen and making a meal from scratch can seem like more of a chore than anything else. Luckily, there’s a little spot in Cajun Country that is serving some of the best homestyle meals outside of your kitchen, and it’s worth a visit. Let’s check it out.
Just off of I-1O in Breaux Bridge lies an unassuming building that’s hiding some big flavors.
