I usually don't comment with competitor options, but, if you want the best Boudin in the state of Louisiana, it's not too far from this place T-Rey's is so much better.

If you're looking for a shop that reminds you of the ones in Acadiana, look no further than…read moreBoudreaux's. I guess you could say that Cajun food and cooking are in my blood. As a child growing up in New Orleans I remember by grandfather from New Iberia coming to visit frequently. I have a lot of fond memories from his visits, but one of the things I remember is applicable to this review. Whenever he would arrive he would have several gifts for the family. I'm not talking about traditional gifts either. He would bring several packs of boudin and hogs head cheese from a local New Iberia shop. That must have had a lasting effect, because since then, I am on a never ending quest for good boudin and head cheese. I was on such a quest just the other day when I noticed Boudreaux's. The moment I walked in, I knew I was in the right place. There were coolers filled with stuffed chickens, roasts, pork loins, gumbo, étouffée and all other sorts of Cajun delights. In the fresh counter is where I focused my attention and will elaborate on a few items. Boudin - fresh, homemade and with the perfect combination of meat and rice. It had a slight kick, but not to overwhelming. Stuffed chicken thighs - stuffed with jalapeño cream cheese and wrapped in bacon. $375 for around 30 minutes covered and 20 uncovered. Oh my goodness gracious was this delicious. Even if you don't normally like thighs, I strongly recommend this item. Smoked boudin - I don't remember smoked boudin when I was growing up, but what a great idea. Boudreaux's version was perfect. Smoked sausage with pepper jack cheese - whatever you do, but some of this sausage. The sausage is made and smoked in house and this is, without a doubt, the best smoked sausage I've ever had. I don't know how it hod hold up in gumbo or some other dish, but it is amazing on its own. The people working behind the counter were friendly and very helpful. If you're like me and miss the Cajun butcher shops of Acadiana, I recommend you take a trip to Boudreaux's.

They have bins of loose dry beans, tamarind, hibiscus, and more you can bag yourself. There are some shelves of pastries in the back by the butcher counter. The butcher is worth noting because it was pretty cheap, or at least the chicken was: drumsticks $0.59/lb, leg quarters on special for $0.49/lb. The meat is not pre-packaged, so if you wanted to buy just one drumstick you could. Spanish seems the primary language - obviously - but they understood my pathetic "cuarto pieces" request. There is also a food counter with some plastic tables set up as a dining area. I didn't see a menu, but I didn't look too hard. Food looked pretty good. Easy enough to get to, shares a sizable parking lot, worth checking out.

And don't make the mistake that I did and go first thing in the morning. If you do, the store is a wreck. There night crew leaves the store looking like it's been hit by a tornado. Also, they don't get up early enough to get fresh stuff from the deli. You have to go no earlier than noon with every other asshole in this crappy town and go scrap for whatever they might have. One time I went and got these pretty good chicken strips from the deli. That was months ago and I haven't seen them since. This place is run haphazardly by clowns with no discipline and no consistency. The only reason I gave 2 stars was bc they are the only alternative to Walmart which kills my will to live. Grocery shopping in an overcrowded town that has less choices than pre Katrina when there were half as many people. It's a low quality of life and this Rouses isn't making it better. Half ass.

I am a big fan of Port and they always seem to have some variety that I have never tried before. (How does that happen?) When I want wine I just browse around and I can find something interesting. Their selection of liquor and liqueurs is large. They have the pedestrian liquors that you have heard of before, but also a very good selection of lesser-known brands. I have gone in a couple of times looking for something I read about somewhere and voila! they have surprised me. I haven't tried, but I am sure they can/will special order something for you if you like. The pricing seems reasonable. I expect the rare and unusual booze to be expensive, but overall the pricing seems fair for what you are getting. I might save a few bucks elsewhere, but I don't bother. The ladies who work here are always cheerful and the service is great. I never leave disappointed!

She scanned the item I had placed on the belt, I saw "insert card" on the card machine, so I inserted card. I saw that she obviously was having trouble with the order. So I said, politely "trouble with the computer?" She said nothing. Eventually she said " Take your card out", so I did. She then just froze, saying nothing, not moving. Then she picked up the phone there and said something. I then politely said, should I go to another check out?". She said nothing! Then another lady came up, and cleared the register. I saw "insert card", and asked her "Should I insert the card?" She said NOTHING. Eventually the order was completed, and was handed the receipt. I waited about 5 seconds to be told "Thank you", but she said NOTHING! So, I loudly said "You're Welcome!". She said nothing. As I walked off I said loudly "You should go to friendly school!" She said nothing. What an unfriendly and rude person!!!!!!! The reciept does not have her names on it, but "Supervisor #9033" . At bottom: C0124 #0128 15:21:02 10Feb2025.
