A look back: Boudreaux's
To start off, Boudreaux's is not for the faint of heart. It's a cajun-themed place and as such, to truly enjoy the food you must enjoy what is spicey. The soups, the sandwiches, the meals - most of them are quite spicey, yet also quite delicious. Assuming you're looking for such an experience, Boudreaux's is the place for you. We came a little bit late to the game for Boudreaux's, not discovering it until this year. But Gavin and I insisted it be added to the tour based on our experience there.
Going to Boudreaux's, you have to know what they're famous for. The first thing is Po Boy sandwiches, basically these wonderful baguette creations that are loaded up with your choice of meat and some cajun mayeaux, of which I am quite partial to. Some other notable dishes are their blackened burger and chicken meals, which are seared with a brilliant array of cajun spices, and also their gator bites. The gator bites are mainly there to provide a talking point, as if you didn't know better you could be eating chicken fingers. Once again, dip them in the cajun mayeaux, you won't be disappointed.
The second aspect of Boudreaux's that is great to try is their collection of beers from Belgium, which are often discounted depending on the night you go. Grab yourself a large amount of these things for you and your friends and drink up. I'm quite partial to the Corsendonk Brown myself.
Boudreaux's is a little different than most places around Blacksburg, but I've found it can fill that little niche for something spicy that we often get a craving for.
The tour's meal recommendations
Justin
Blackened Bleu Burger (Seared with spices and topped with bleu cheese and mayeaux)
Gumbo Ya-Ya (Andouille sausage and chicken make this spicy soup excellent)
Corsendonk Brown Beer (As stated above, this is one of the few times I'll go for more expensive beer, but it's worth it)
Gavin
Alligator Bites - Spicy and vaguely chicken-like. For all I know they could be chicken nuggets with cajun spices, but still damn good.
Gumbo Ya-Ya - Excellent pre-dinner for those who enjoy a little meat in their soup... no innuendo intended.
Crawdad Po-Boy - I think the picture above says it all... delicious
Russ
Alligator Bites - Tastes just like chicken, a novelty, but good none-the-less.
Crawfish Po' Boy - Only thing i've had there, but quite good.
