As much as the gumbo caught my eye, I couldn't go past trying New Orleans's historical Po' Boy, specifically the Deep Fried Chicken Po' Boy with buttermilk marinated Cajun Spice chicken, Cajun slaw, pickles, Louisiana hot sauce and Creole Mayo. Whilst the bread was a touch tough (and there was a lot of it), the chicken was still juicy and seasoned well, and the slaw was flavoursome (although I think they forgot the hot sauce on my roll).
Luckily my friends were willing to share the chilli cheese fries as they were not only huge but delicious. In my view, they are perfectly delicious as they are and don't require the addition of pulled pork or Andouille which will likely be offered.
The service is slightly confusing - on walking on in we weren't sure whether we were meant to go up and order, or whether someone would come to us. It was also tricky to get someone's attention to place our order and ask for our bill (even though there were only like 5 people in there). But the service was still friendly, and the food delicious, so I'll definitely be back even if it's just to try the gumbo.
