 | There’s a new place on the northern edge of downtown that serves some of the
best New Orleans style food I’ve every had outside of the Big Easy. It’s
Bud’s Louisiana Food Shoppe at 2034 Kettner Blvd, #12, just next to The
Waterfront Bar. It’s been open about 6 weeks by the man who started the old
Bayou Grill in the Gaslamp. I had the seafood gumbo (a bowl for $7.50) and it
was rich, delicious and loaded with andouille sausage, shrimp, crab and
crawfish. We had a taste of the Crawfish Etouffe ($7.95 or $9.95.) And it was
supeb. The Jalapeno cornbread was the most moist cornbread I’ve ever had. The
Creole Pecan pie had a thin layer of cheesecake on the bottom and a layer of
pecan pie on top. Wow! I can't wait to try the fried oyster poor boys, the red
beans and rice and the cajun jambalaya that are also on the menu. It’s a
small place, maybe 8 tables inside and 4 outside. You order at the counter and
then they bring you your food. It’s only open Monday to Friday from 11am to
7pm. Very Highly Recommended–(I’m going back!) I have no $$ ties, I’m
just a fan. 619-239-4210 for to go orders. I’m told the web site is
www.budsfoodeshoppe.com

I can vouch for Bob, he's a long-time poster to sdnet.eats and
alt.food.wine,
a personal friend and is not employed by or invested in the restaurant
industry, to the best of my knowledge. I realize that the internet is
full
of pluggers, but Bob isn't one of them. If he says the place is good,
it's
at least worth a try. And anyplace opened by the original owner of the
Bayou
Bar and Grill is also worth a try, just on that knowledge.
I usually google someone before I start accusing them of plugging.
Like
that stupid Neiderfrank's moron...
