Blake’s Deli

You do not get to Thibodaux, Louisiana by accident. You have to WANT to actually get there. And even then it may not necessarily be easy unless you pay attention to where the hell you are going. Especially if there is a bridge out somewheres and you gotta reroute the way you have to go.
For the uninitiated Louisiana is a state. But I would also say it is a different country too. But that ain’t a bad thing at all. Unless you end up on the wrong side of somebody you happen to piss off severely. This is not the case with your olé Unilocal buddy Madman. Madman has friends and makes friends wherever he goes. Yes. Yes he does. Ya gotta be down with the peeps. You must talk with them, laugh with them, drink with them, and have sex with them too if this is what they want. Don’t be a snob. Don’t think you are better than anybody else. Everybody has got something they can teach to you. Including but not limited to sexual positions.
ALAS! I digress! (I do that a lot). But every now and again you stumble upon an unexpected gem that is such a great find that it doesn’t even look like a gem at all. It appears at first as a mirage. So. Louisiana is a state but also a different country. And within the country of Louisiana exists another country called Thibodaux. Stay with me here! Now inside of Thibodaux (inside of Louisiana) there is another country called the Jungle Casino which shares a border with another country called The Congo Lounge. These two countries share a DMZ known as Blakes Deli.
You just can’t make this shit up! Here you go:
Blakes deli is way the fuck better than Switzerland too (also where the Congo Lounge and the Jungle Casino are located. In case you ever wondered where the hell that actually was. NOW you know!) Technically it is located also in the Adventure Truck Plaza which I believe also has the same status as its own country like the Vatican or Malta.
It is here in this magical land that I enjoyed one of the BEST damn oyster po boy sammiches I have ever had in my life. Right there in the fillin’ station. Yes, sir! I did and it was better than many I have payed a lot more money to eat.
Here is the menu:
Yep! That oyster poboy was LOADED with oysters. Cooked PERFECTLY. And they got shrimp, catfish, and roast beef poboy sammiches too. And great fried chicken and beer too.
I realize I make this shit look easy sometimes. Doing these reviews. I hope you people who read this shit appreciate the fact that I often risk my own life to get this type of information to you. Andrew Zimmern is a joke. He should roll with me sometime. It would be fun to hear him whine like a girly man as he feared for his life. Adventurer my ass!
You have not had an adventure until you have located, eaten, and made it out of the Adventure Truck Plaza. So if you haven’t the just shut the hell up. No. Seriously. Shut the hell up. Especially in this place. Nobody gives a damn who you are so if you think you are somebody OR you actually are somebody. shut your mouth. Unless you are eating.
NOTE: Drive thru frozen Daiquiris across the road. Yes it is legal. But not to drink them while driving. Again. SHUT UP! You ask too many questions. Get one. Don’t get one. This is Thibodaux, LA. Shut your mouth and play along. Got it? Good.

great shrimp poboys
