JAG, I have not been there, but having lived there, my old friends say that it's the best restaurant in Houma. Well, maybe the fanciest and most expensive, and probably very good. It's in the old part of town in an old house. It's beautiful. (OK, I made a sales call on them a few years ago, but not ...

Because they buy it from Sysco like that. While I'm sure the restaurant owners can buy a hunk of cheese pre-sliced, it's likely more expensive that way. So yeah....you'll get grated and you're gonna like it.

Got my own beer tasting going here. Andygator. Wow. I love NOLA's brews, and not so much Abita beers, but Andygator is just too good. Watching the Tigers, too. Top of 8th. Tigers are smokin'!

Several recipes suggest 2 heaping tablespoons per 6 oz. water ...and to dilute with hot water if that is too strong. Heaping tablespoons leads to bitterness due to overextraction.
