Satisfy Your Craving for all things Creole and Spicy

Posted by Josh on July 8th, 2008

Okay, it’s a tiny bit south of here. But so is the cuisine. I’m talking about the good old-time southern cooking at the aptly named Jambalaya, at 508 Garfield Street in Parkland just a few minutes South of the Hotel Murano. It’s a whole mess o’ catfish, seafood gumbo, po’boy sandwiches, red beans & rice and crawfish salad, all moderately priced at 7-10 dollars. Not too spicy and totally worth the drive.  All this and a touch of New Orleans is enough to have you saying, “Y’all come back now, ya hear?”
