Drago's is closing

I don’t get the love for Superior. Maybe after a few Margarita’s anything taste good, but I have eaten in BR, New Orleans and Shreveport and it’s meh.

LOL! To each his own. I don't get the love for mediocre greasy food and dirty facilities. Everyone has their favorites.

I don't even know what the food taste like.

Shreveport has some for real sound coming through speakers that might have been on stage with AC/DC (think Poet's). NOLA is a serious Wednesday Night destination and nothing touches their Cinco de Mayo. BR, well, it's BR

Hmmm, ok.

It's got 3 locations all in the state and is privately owned. Literally not the definition of a chain.

Not to be that guy.... but a lot of these "Mexican" restaurants aren't Mexican. A lot of it is more Central American than Mexican. Nothing wrong with that at all. Even when you are talking Mexican there are massive differences in the regions. It's no different than what we have here in the U.S. Our food in South Louisiana is completely different than what you would expect in the midwest.

Point being is that much of the discussion is being labeled "Mexican" is about equal to labeling it "American". Truth be told I'm not sure there is a good "interior" Mexican restaurant in Lafayette. TexMex sure, Central American yes, Fusion...no doubt.

Gotta love the food threads.

Not really a fan of Tex-Mex. I only go to the "Mexican" restaurants if the family wants so I can get a margarita. For real street tacos, Taqueria DF at the Grub Lot in Erath is really good. I'm ready for the trip to Houston for Cajuns baseball so I can head to my sketchy taco spots in the hood.

The Grub Lot in Erath has a nice set of options.

It will have 5 locations in Louisiana, all with the same owner. It’s EXACTLY what the definition a chain restaurant is. But to each their own.

Is anyone mixing up chain model with franchisee model?

Franchise models usually start with a successful chain.

Don’t forget Marylin’s in Michael’s gentleman’s club. They got the best tuna wrap this side of the vermilion!!

I enjoy the tuna curtains salad...

Michaels needs to relocate that operation across Congress from the north ez (the levee). They seem to be killing it though, way out in bfe.

The current Joey's was a strip joint back in the day called Night Moves.
