re: How often did your family go "out to eat" at a restaurant when you were a kid?

Rarely. Our discretionary income was spent on boats, equipment, camps and hunting leases. We played every weekend.


If we did it was to a seafood boil / dance hall / beer joint place down the bayou.

Big John’s where David Chauvin is located now on Bayou Dulac. It burned down in the 70’s.

Or TB’s in Raceland.
