Ascension, Livingston and Tangipahoa Parish Road Trip.

[Jeeves]

This is one of my favorite trips. It starts in Sorrento on US 61, heads North on LA 22 and comes back South on US 51 or I-55 I call it my Great Circle Tour as it completely encircles Lake Maurepas. http://picasaweb.google.com/P71CVPI/TangiRoadTrip02

Very nice pics, Jeeves, thanks.

Those statues at the entrance to Middendorf's outdoor dining area look a little, um, odd from that angle.

OMG! Can't wait to show that to the Pfeiffers! They'll get a laugh out of it.

Thanks for those pics. I spent many a weekend on the Tickfaw growing up. We'd put in at Blood River, Dad would put some Herb Albert in the built-in 4-track tape deck and we were off! Sometimes Mom would pack a fried chicken dinner from Joe-D's market in BR (no Popeye's back then), but on lucky days, we'd take the boat all the way across Maurepas to Middendorf's. One particular Sunday is forever seared into my memory because I had the definitive trout meuniere of my youth there. Haven't been there since Chef Pfeiffer took over and these pics make my want to go back. Wonder if he'll do an Oktoberfest menu - his would be one that would actually be good. Maybe I will go in October and wear my lederhosen ...or maybe not!

Nice pictures!

(That grave with the teddy bears and angels brought a tear to my eye).

What am I missing from the Middendorf's photos? I don't see no stinkin' statues!

First album, photo #30, at right.

The Crab Trap restaurant and Lakeview Snowballs. Soon to open is Frenier Landing Oyster Bar & Seafood Restaurant.

Those statues do look funny. They were pelicans actually.

Thanks, went out there last year for some boiled crabs at Crab Trap and saw the construction starting (I'm guessing) on Frenier Landing.
Did the fried seafood Snack Shack close?

Did the fried seafood Snack Shack close?

Yes. No big loss there. The best thing about it was the bait. From what I heard they had a couple/few different owners and it was not successful for any of them. I heard praise from few but not from most and my meals there were just plain bad.
