Cajun Experience

This was the restaurant where we stopped for lunch on Saturday on our walk around Leesburg.

Specialising in the Southern cuisine of Louisiana, there were many dishes on the menu that we had heard of but never tried.  

Above are Crawfish Pies, which were very good.

These 'Boudin Balls' were a deep fried savoury ball of meat and rice or cornmeal, a little like haggis!

This plate (which we shared, as with all of them!) was Chicken Jambalaya with fried Catfish fillet and a cornmeal muffin.

We were more than full by this stage and had probably undone all the benefit of the big walk around Leesburg.  Dessert was included in the meal so along came these Beignets (fritters) with a generous dusting (drift) of icing sugar.

It may seem as if we ate our way through the entire menu but there were a number of things that we didn't try...Fried Gator; Fried Pickles; Fried Okra...
