NOLA to Conroe TX : Lake Charles LA

The first stop out of NOLA was the Bayou Distillery.  A locally owned, locally sourced, distiller of rum!  

While we were there, they recommended a couple of other stops in Lake Charles.

Honey B Ham was on our list from the beginning.  We bought ham and broccoli cheese casserole for Monday's party.

We also bought Boudin Balls - YUMM!!

Boudin Balls 

 The first recommendation from the kind folks at Bayou Distillery was Famous Foods, ,1475 Gerstner Memorial Dr, Lake Charles, LA 70601.  We were told to get the chocolate covered cracklin.  The did not have it :(  more was coming in 45 minutes.  If you know us, or have ever been on a road trip of your own, you know we did not wait.  But we bought a couple types of Boudin.

The other great suggestion was J T's Seafood at 2908 Lake St, Lake Charles, LA 70601.
