Bring Back the Catfish Plate

[CajunStros]

I've heard that they sell sushi at the Alex Box. Who the hell wants sushi at a BASEBALL game is beyond me, but if they can sell sushi at the litter box, then the Tigue should be able to capatilze on making CAJUN food.

I had the fried fish when it was there and it was damn good.

A bag of chips and cup of watery velvetta is a disappointment to say the least.

The overpriced philly cheese "steak" is also not very good. It's top sirloin (crappy meat) with way too many onions and bellpeppers, (prob to hide the lack of meat) melted cheese, with little to no seasoning, on a po-boy bun.

I love the Tigue and will prob buy peanuts and a beer every time I'm there, but the rest of the food leaves a lot to be desired.

_ Just get rid of Sodexho. Part of the greatness of Acadiana is the great food. So, we now have little local flavor, and have replaced it with the same crap you can get at every other stadium. Horrible!

Here is an idea, replace all concessions with local restaurants. You want burgers, you get one from a local vendor (like Judice or Southside). That slice of pizza would come from Denos or whoever. Have a local seafood joint do fried LOCAL seafood. I think this would only enhance the experience for visiting fans(who want some good food), locals (who know what good food is), and local business (who pay taxes to the city). It's a win/win.

And in case you don't get it...LOCAL! _

This would be amazing. I just don't see how it could possibly work. The logistics would be an issue, and I don't know how it would be profitable for the restaurants.

Keep in mind guys, Sodexo handles ALL food on campus. Even though it sucks.

As is often the case...its politics.

My idea would be to turn the Cajun Cooking Club into a restaurant of sorts.

The guys could make extra of whatever is on the menu that day...

Sell it till it runs out...

and keep the profits to invest back into the club.

I still can't comprehend why they insist on carding guys in their 60's for beer. I get that it's a liability not to card, but really? The white hair and wrinkles is enough to buy in my book.

The Philly cheese steaks were awesome 2 years ago when they first did them, but last year they started skimping on the meat and seasoning. Last year when I got one it was nothing but onions, bell peppers and the gross oil that the cook kept doucing my sandwich with. Barf

_ I thought the burger was pretty good. My only complaint is that it is too big. 10oz is too much beef imho. Maybe because I am used to NOLA events, but I think the concession prices are pretty reasonable.

Don't hate me, but I like the Abita Amber on tap. _

what?..how can too much beef be a bad thing... I don't get it... also, I like the amber too... I think that jambalaya would sell well.. If it was done right that is..

[Cajunbander]

They need to do something about the food. I mean, they keep wanting to attract students to go to events, but we're not usually that monetarily endowed. We can't afford to spend $30 on up for food and beer!


I know this is off topic, because it's not about food at The Tigue, but there's a place that opened up by campus called CT Seafood & Grill. (It's by the Petroleum Club) It's like Chinese and American food. I got a three piece chicken tender combo with fried rice and an order of crab rangoon for like, eight bucks. It's perfect college food. It's not the best, but it's good, and you get a TON of food. There's more food in the 3 tender combo than in a Caniac from Cane's. It's crazy.

Those cheesesteaks and burgers aren't very good and way too expensive. I can't afford much more than a beer and bag of peanuts at the game.

On the Mr Bitter Show, Coach Robichaux said ballparks should have signature food that fits the area they are located in.

Boy he either missed the boat on that one, or he is trying to get a point across to whoever does the catering.
