In Short
Downtown nine-to-fivers start the day with Roslynn "Lady" DeCuir's freshly fried beignets and return throughout the day for her po' boys, jambalaya and seafood gumbo. Regulars wait all week for specials like Thursday's super-spicy shrimp Creole, which disappears by 2pm. The no-frills restaurant caters to vegetarians and vegans--and also to football fans, who can enjoy the Monday-night-football happy hour. Southern hospitality meets bad singing at Thursday- and Friday-night karaoke.
