Hello all you beautiful people. Big announcement here. We will be closing for the month of June.
I know a whole month.
As a very small mom and pop restaurant we have been neglecting considerable things in our work and personal lives. As we age with those around us time is the one thing you can never get back. (If you do know of a time machine please invest in Amazon, Google and Starbucks for me).
Do not fear. We might be adding BBQ to the menu as Chef Marcus was a pit master for many years and it's one of his food passions.
With that said. Keep an eye out here. We very likely will open for a day to test out the BBQ with y'all.
This next week is the last week to get your Gumbo Pot fix until July. Please call in our message us here if you would like to stock up on anything in bulk. We may be sold out by Sunday.
In the words of another beautiful southern person.

Here are the Happenings this week.
Chef Marcus is better.
Dessert is the Carrot Cake topped with cheese cake pudding and caramel drizzle .
We are open for Mother's day. I will have a rose for the mom's just like last year and my kiddos helping out.
Congratulations to our oldest son Killian (yes the sandwich is named after him, there is a whole story. If you know it drop it in the comments).
We will be closing at 3pm. Next Wednesday the 13th to get him and us to the graduation at CCHS. My beautiful mother will be in town a few days next week and might be around the restaurant if you want to ask her embarrassing facts about me.
Here is a photo of Killian's first day of school when Marcus could still hold him up on one arm. Killian is now going into computers however he can make an excellent lasagna.

Hey, Kelli here. Chef is sick. We will be closing at 1pm. The menu is also limited to what I can do by myself.

I'm a day late.
Happy America Birthday to Louisiana. It was probably the biggest and best real estate deal in history.

April 30, 1812
Happy Birthday, Louisiana! On the ninth anniversary of the agreement was reached on purchase of Louisiana from France, Louisiana was admitted to the Union as the 18th state today in 1812. The State of Louisiana would be something new for the United States. It was the first state west of the Mississippi River to seek statehood; it would be admitted to the United States with no fixed borders as the Adams-Ona Treaty establishing the Sabine River as the western edge of the state was still seven years away; it would have political traditions were not outgrowths of British colonial experience, but of the monarchies of France and Spain.
