"Gordon, his cousin Bert from New Orleans, and I ate last night in the popular Roux and Brew restaurant in Ponchatoula. Gordon and I had their fried green tomatoes with lumps crabs meat appetizers, and Bert had spinach diving with spiced and roasted tie pasta. Gordon had one of her most delicious ducks, two delicate medals filled with crab meat, garlic potatoes and green beans. I had BBQ shrimps and grits. Bert had her crabcake pasta. We tried their local beer. I had one with a citrus flavor, and surely it will order again! We decided to sit in their multi-faceted terrace. It was cool and fresh, and the area where we sat, reminded me of New Orleans from the 19th. Century, with large ferns, old bricks and high ceilings. Another terrace area was more modern, with group terrace seats, some with fire pits. A live band warmed up in this area, but could be heard in the adjacent area where we were. I love Roux and Brew! My favorite restaurant!!"
