For reasons best left unknown to the American Public, Spicy Food Guy found himself in Orlando, Florida last week.
"I know," Spicy Food Guy declared to none-too-bright colleagues of Spicy Food Guy (NTBCOSFG) one warm delightful evening, "let's go find a hole in the wall cajun tavern where we will sit on stools, munch on tater tots covered in hot wing sauce, drink beer, and step over scary homeless people sleeping in the public bathrooms!"
NTBOCOSFG, not bright by definition, readily agreed.
So off Spicy Food Guy and friends went to the Crooked Bayou. The tater tots in spicy wing sauce? First class. The fried pickles in spicy honey mustard sauce? Even better. Because Spicy Food Guy took a large party with him, it took a while to get everybody drinks. And some of the more, shall we say, refined and cultured members of NTBOCOSFG never did look very comfortable, hunched over their stools as they were.
Spicy Food Guy loved it.

As an entree, the spicy catfish was decent, not great. Fun Friend of Spicy Food Guy (FFOSFG) got the rajun' cajun poboy, which was tasty and tangy and was slathered in a signature creole mustard that made Spicy Food Guy wish he had ordered one of the poboys.
All in all, good eats, good company, scary bathrooms. Two out of three ain't bad.

Good to know! I live in FL and have a cousin in Orlando! That Po'Boy sounds mighty fine!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to The Foodie Blogroll, ya'll!
The only REAL AUTHENTIC Louisianna eats in Orlando can be found at Jockomo's. Another hole in the wall but it's the real deal. Crawfish boils every other Sat. Crooked Bayou is faux bayou cusine at it's most mediocre.
ReplyDeletebest cajun food in Orlando hands down is Bojangles! Their cajun chicken, Jambalaya, dirty rice, seasoned fries, and sweat tea is a taste you will never forget. They just opened in East Orlando near corner of Alafaya and Colonial Drive. They just knocked down the Steak and Ale in Alamonte Springs and plan to build another Bojangles there this year.
