Mmmmm good!!!

Easy drive to Duson, La...a small spot outside Lafayette and Breaux Bridge in the heart of good eatin'! The local area is dubbed Frog City and as you drive along the freeway you pass fields of crawfish farms. See picture. Signs all along the freeway advertise local eateries featuring Cajun delights.
Our first evening meal was at a recommended spot called Chef Roy's Frog City Café. Absolutely amazing!!! We had frog legs (of course), crawfish, and shrimp. Maybe the best I've ever had...really. We ate so much I hurt!
The next day we just drove around and looked at the area, stopping frequently to sample the local goodies. Mike's Boudin & Cracklin Shop was a nice stop. We sampled Boudin (rice & pork sausage) balls, and pralines. Again...deeeeelightful! Lunch at a small combination fruit stand & café in Lafayette continued our gormet tour. Shrimp and boiled peanuts were on the menu. In fact, we ate so much we were still too filled at supper, so we skipped going out again. Going to make up for that tomorrow.
Another day of fine eating ensued...gotta get outta town before I explode.
