It's a bit bourgeois but quite frankly that's what malls are for: spending money.

Perkins Rowe is where California meets Baton Rouge. With many little boutique stores to various…read morehigh end shopping spots, various restaurants, a movie theater, and condos sprouting up everywhere, this little district is bound to change Baton Rouge shopping as we know it. Whether or not its working, remains to be seen. A lot of stores still haven't been added to the area, which with its palm trees and building look, resembles Sunset Blvd in Los Angeles. The new movie theater is fantastic and the little lounges / dessert joints around the place make it a very hip, youngster area. During the summer months, Baton Rouge is muggy, humid, and so hot that walking outside to window shop doesn't seem very feasible. Until the Spring and Fall seasons roll around, perhaps the Mall of Louisiana is the only place to enjoy actual air conditioning. As Baton Rouge continues to develop into a metropolis, Perkins Rowe is sure to continue to become a real district worth visiting for all visitors and locals.

I'm not going to sugar coat this review. There isn't a store on this strip that I've had to go into…read morethat I haven't walked out of concerned that I should bathe. The Party City is hands-down the NASTIEST sticky-floored, picked over, shitty-carted mess I've seen in all of the chain. #nothanks That feeling carries over to the Big Lots and the several convenience stores serving as last stops before hitting I-10. This is a sad state considering the state of the shopping center across Siegen. The contrast is startling and it could very well be that I have no concept about the different communities they serve. Fast food restaurants and chain restaurants in the center often host antique/vintage/muscle car shows which can be problematic when attempting to order at any of the drive-thrus. Aside from that, be mindful of the parking lot layout. People fly through.

It's nothing short of a manufactured village / neighborhood, geared around plenty of shopping. I guarantee if you're not a woman or a child with no desires other than some milk, you might find the place a tad boring. The folks running the joint love to sell the idea that it's lifestyle shopping, which thankfully also means there is going to be a variable mix of random stores catered to different interests. The setup is remarkably easy and surprisingly peaceful, and quite clean. With respect to the shopping lineup, it's completely clear this place is meant more for the ladies than they are for the guys. There are more than twice as many stores geared toward women (Ann Taylor, J. Jill, Eros, Febe, Lane Bryant etc), than there is for men. Aside from American Eagle Outfitters, Gap, and perhaps Al's Formal Wear, the pickens get pretty slim for my fellow brethren. But fear not, since most guys don't enjoy aimless shopping (keyword: aimless), there is a decent crop of eateries situated here. Carrabba's, Bonefish Grill, Zoe's Kitchen might all passable options, though I encourage most everyone to avoid PF Chang's and Qdoba like the devil, but it beats having nothing else. If you happen to be among the targeted demographic, go crazy here. If not, there is always the Mall of Louisiana (delinquent central) or Perkins Rowe (semi-delinquent central). Just don't let that insane Baton Rouge 9% sales tax catch up to you.

This kind of shopping center is the future. Not the enclosed mall that made it big in the 1980's,…read morebut an open air shopping experience that you can actually park near the store you want to shop at instead of having to park and trek in to the mall, not remembering exactly where the store is that you want to shop at inside of the enclosed mall, trekking thru the mall to find what you are looking for, getting what you need, drag it back to your car and the whole monotony that goes along with that. You get the idea. Any way. This series of mini strip malls has got it all going on. Book store, clothing stores for men, women and children, a variety of chain restaurants, jewelry stores, a drug store, a hotel nearby, multiple entrances and a Whole Foods. The parking spots are plenty as are the sidewalks. It is well lit at night, and nice decorations at the holidays. The landscaping is well maintained and there are no major obstacles. The area seems to be a nice area, though I am not familiar enough with Baton Rouge to really know for sure, but I get the feeling that not much crime occurs in this area.

I don't even remember what was here before the Acadian Village popped up. You'll find everything here that can be an entire day's plan for you. Start the morning off with a workout at Barre3, then scoot on over to Ruby Slipper for brunch, then shop a little bit at Trader Joe's, once you are tired of shopping, mosey on over La Divina for lunch and a gelato, pop on over to Nadeau for some furniture shopping and end the evening with dinner at Galatoire's. There you have it! A full day's worth of food, fun and shopping. Yup, I bet you are super excited now! I love coming here and enjoy visiting the businesses here that serve our community. Need to charge your vehicle, while you are brunching, lunching or shopping? They have some chargers on the far left side of the plaza, too. You will definitely love your day at Acadian Village. Located on Perkins & Acadian.

I love that they have a Trader Joe's neatly tucked in here as well. There's also a nice Petco centered in the shopping area. They also have apparel stores, furniture stores, and also home decor stores. They even have Sprint situated in this shopping complex. There's many food places ranging from Asian, to Cajun. This is a great little shopping area nestled right in Mid-City for convenance.

When first moved here (almost 10 years ago), my husband and I found the right away. Immediately, I…read morefelt at home that there was a Whole Foods in my new city of residence. You bet I was super thankful. So, I am a frequent visitor of this plaza. I have also seen the many changes it has been through in the last 10 years. About 1/2 of the plaza has changed in terms of businesses like restaurants, boutiques and retail shops. There is a lot and it looks fairly upscale. Don't let that deter you from visiting. If you have never been to a Whole Foods, you'll love visiting this plaza. You can pretty much do everything you need to do at that spot. Don't be surprised if you spend the whole day there because you can! Grab breakfast at District Donuts, get some retail therapy at some of the surrounding department stores, get some lunch Five Guys, shop at Whole Foods and sit for a nice dinner at Bonefish Grill and stay for cocktails at their awesome bar! Don't worry Towne Center, I will be back often! In fact, I think I'm there every 2 weeks or more on the usual.

You can literally park your car, get on foot and make your way around Bocage Village within minutes. Don't do that though! Stop and experience the goodness; there is so much offered here. Start your day off at breakfast or brunch at La Madeleine, get a massage at Dr. Vick's LA Medical Spa, jewelry shop at Classic Jewelers, break for lunch - grab a burger from Dearman's or a steak salad from Portobellos, browse the stationary shop Paper N Things, clothing shop at Bella Bella, relax for dinner at Beausoleil and finally pick-up some groceries at Calvin's Bocage Market. Wow, thought you had to spend the whole day driving in your car just to hit up these same type of places? Nope, you can do that all here! The best part is the whole time you did all this, you were supporting local business, too! Don't you feel great? Oh yeah, tell your friends, now! #supportbrlalocal
