Wine reviews

Posted by Sixafan on 5/7/24 at 5:36 pm
So I’m trying to upgrade my wine purchases but so far have been very disappointed in taste to value. Even taste to double the price. I recall many great bottles of BV Rutherford for less than $25 per bottle in the 90’s and beyond. Now I like liberty Creek big jug better than many well ranked $30+ b...

Ate at Acme Oyster House in Gulf Shores week or so ago. Solid. Very good Louisiana raw oysters. Po-boys (shrimp, ouster and soft shell crab) were great. One had a crab cake which was good. Good drink menu. Will go back....

re: Gulf Coast Beach Condo rental rates

Posted by Sixafan on 4/28/24 at 12:56 pm
We stay at the first condo to west of the fishing pier. Have almost a mile of dunes with no other condos. Place is more reasonable than many others on east side of 59. Quiet at night and clean. No lazy river but two pools and really great view if you can rent one of the units on the east side of th...
On pizza ti eat at home I’d recommend Janinos. Usually eat there but this time was talked into trying Crico’s. Only because Janine’s won’t deliver east of 59. Well we will now go to them now as Janinos is far better then Crico’s. If you like soggy pizza with everything but the kitchen sink Crico’...

Why is every post getting a thumbs down when they are neutral? Some vegetarian PITA dipstick?...
Gulf is pretty good but not real good in Gulf fish. Great scenery, reasonable prices but eating is third Wentzels is solid Cobalt is top end and super scenery. If you into fried foods pass. The Point in Perdido is good and very local and does all well and has a band usually. Desotos an...

So been catching some that make good fillets. What have y’all found to be the best recipes for cooking or smoking them that would appeal to some folks from Lafayette and Baton Rouge or NOLA. TYIA...
Texas Roadhouse in Lafayette La. By far. NY or KC strip -black and blue. ...
Ditto on 4 lb and Mepps and Panther Martin spinners One thing about Panther Martin spinners is that they twist your line so use a swivel and if water clarity prevents that let your line unwind every few casts. ...

re: Do y'all devein shrimp?

Posted by Sixafan on 4/19/24 at 8:51 pm
Do NOT serve shrimp to Yankees unless they are deveined. Worse than making them use the outhouse. Keep the flavorful natural shrimp for yourself and serve them the bleached, big, chewy, deveined crap. ...

re: Festival International

Posted by Sixafan on 4/19/24 at 8:40 pm
A really good music and food festival. Not a redneck festival. But also authentic. Just remember that it’s an international festival not a Cajun or seafood or whatever festival. You not gonna get funnel cakes or boudin balls but food is great and music is good. The Breaux Bridge Crawfish Festival i...
Palace Cafe in Opelousas. Iconic. But not eclectic, expensive or chi chi. If you want to impress your in laws go there. If you need to impress yourself go elsewhere. Like Dwyers in Lafayette....

re: Gino’s In Baton Rouge

Posted by Sixafan on 4/19/24 at 8:30 pm
If you have a waiter that snubs you at Gino’s you can bet that they think you are clueless. Gino’s is like one restaurant in NOLA that knows a rube from a regular. A polished bon vibrant from a casino diner. Seriously. Think about it. ...
