    Country Hix Boudin and Cracklins - Boudin ball

    I didn't get a chance to ask why this place is only open until 5 PM, because I barely made it there…read moreat 4:45. If I had any say in the matter, I'd pay to keep them open 24 hours because this is the kind of food you'll crave any time of day or night. As it says in the name, Country Hix specializes in boudin. Boudin is a sausage made of both meat and rice, with ground vegetables inside. I got a little of everything: regular boudin, smoked boudin, boudin ball, boudin rollup. For your information: * Regular boudin indeed tastes like a sausage casing with meat and rice inside. It's fairly plain, and mine tasted a little underdone. I far preferred the smoked boudin, which just brings that zing of smoked flavor with it and transforms the sausage into something divine. And it was perfectly done. (I admit that I added the plain boudin to compare the two, so they weren't thrown in simultaneously.) Unless someone in your family doesn't like it for some reason, get all your boudin links (about 1/2 lb each, they say) as smoked. * Boudin ball is wonderful. You may be familiar with stuffed jalapenos, where you put cream cheese and possibly meat inside a jalapeno, bread and deep-fry. Well, this is the opposite. You take some cheese and jalapeno and you wrap the meat around THAT, before breading and deep-frying the meat ball. Again, that inversion and priority on the boudin sausage transforms this dish. It's also the perfect amount of breading and fried to the perfect doneness. * Boudin rollup is, as Country Hix advises, similar to an egg roll but with boudin inside. I got the pepper jack variety, and can tell you it tastes like a small cheesesteak. Again, excellent. You can't go wrong with a ball or a rollup of your choice. When I called to see if they'd still be open, they asked if I wanted to place my order in advance. If you think your timing will be close to 5 PM, definitely do that. From my talk with the very friendly lady up front, I have no doubt they would hold your meal a few minutes past 5:00 as they clean up, as long as they can get it all cooked before then. My talk also tells me it's family-owned (not to mention the kids hanging out), which just adds even more stars to a rating that is already 5 stars. Pull off the highway, accelerate a little harder if you need, but get your fanny to Country Hix ASAP.

    If you love Billy's you should love Hix! We have been here twice now and it has been great! The…read morecrispy chicken salad was even excellent. We will be back!

    -- Good Intentions, Poor Execution…read more Let me start by saying I wanted to like Don P's. Friday lunch, only three other tables occupied, and a menu that had real potential. Unfortunately, the experience fell short from the moment we walked in until we tracked someone down just to pay and leave. ________________________________________ First Impressions No greeting. No hostess. We stood at the entrance long enough to feel awkward before walking up to the counter ourselves to ask the basics -- do we seat ourselves? Is there table service? They clearly saw us, but ignored us. Not a great start for a sit-down restaurant. ________________________________________ Atmosphere & Presentation The décor is trying to do something, but it lands closer to glitzy-cheap than charming. More noticeable: the food arrived in takeout containers with plastic utensils, and drinks came in disposable cups. At a table-service restaurant. At lunch. No aprons, no uniforms on the staff -- nothing that signals "we take this seriously." ________________________________________ The Food OG Gumbo -- 3/10 I've driven hours out of my way for great gumbo. This wasn't it. Okra, andouille, chicken, shrimp -- the ingredients were there, but the broth was thin and watery in a way I've genuinely never experienced before. It's not the worst gumbo I've ever had (chain restaurants hold that title), but it was very substandard, a real disappointment. Cajun Pasta -- 2/10 This one was rough. Overcooked pasta, bordering on paste, and salted so aggressively it tasted almost intentional -- like Cajun seasoning AND an extra round of salt was added separately. Nearly inedible, and I don't use that word lightly. ________________________________________ Service Virtually nonexistent. We were ignored for most of the meal and had to physically hunt down our server to get the check -- so we could leave and go eat somewhere else. That about sums it up. ________________________________________ Final Thoughts Don P's isn't without potential -- the concept is there, and the food came out hot and fast. But hot and fast doesn't cover watery gumbo, over-seasoned pasta, disposable everything, and a staff that seemed indifferent to our presence. With some serious attention to food quality, service standards, and basic dining room professionalism, this place could be something. Right now, it's not. Would I return? No. Would I recommend it? Not yet.

    5-Star Review Don P…read morein Meridian absolutely delivered! I tried the seafood pasta and it was honestly one of the best dishes I've had in a long time. The pasta was cooked perfectly, the sauce was rich and full of flavor, and the seafood was fresh, seasoned just right, and generously portioned. You can tell they put real care into the meal. Every bite had that perfect balance of flavor that makes you stop and say, "yeah... this is it." The service was friendly, the atmosphere was great, and the food came out hot and fast. I'll definitely be back -- and if you go, do yourself a favor and order the seafood pasta. It's worth every penny.
