Pappadeaux seafood kitchen in Houston.
huge portions, great flavors. getting a taste of the french quarter for lunch. the menu was extensive, and there were sO many things i wanted to try.. it took me forever to choose my order.
we started with gulf coast oysters. these were a bit briny and salty for my taste, but fresh nonetheless.
i had the Louisiana gumbo + po boy combo, (so i could try more things!) i got the 1/2 a fried catfish po’boy + crawfish bisque. i couldn’t finish the po boy.. it was huGe. i enjoyed the catfish, which was fried with cornmeal batter; it gave the sandwich a nice crunchy texture, and held the tartar sauce well.
below is the crawfish combo, with crawfish etouffee & fried crawfish. loved the fried crawfish!
was stuffed, but, must.always. have. dessert. sO, we went with the highly recommended bread pudding, and it was worth it. the crispy and crunchy baked “crust” eaten with a bite of vanilla ice cream was delicious.. the pudding was soft and juicy, not dry at all, and generously dotted with rummy raisins. easily best bread pudding i’ve ever had.
pappadeaux is definitely food coma inducing food… lots of spices, carby, fried and rich. LOVE.
