Price: $7 for three boudin
"balls" and some garlic toast.
Presentation: The
boudin "balls" are served with a glop of apricot pepper jelly.
They don't take long to arrive, piping hot, from the kitchen.
Casing:
A nice, uniformly thin, breaded coating is crispy and maintains
the shape of these oblong creations.
Meat/Rice Ratio: More
meat than rice.
Texture: The texture of the
boudin filling in these boudin oblongs is creamy and smooth.
There are occasional bits of undercooked rice, but most of the
rice kernels have been mixed, pounded, and pulverized into the
meaty filling.
Spice: Mild
Overall
Flavor:. A nice flavor, but the filling is sort of bland
and overpowered by the fried coating. The apricot pepper
jelly is not particularly necessary, though it does add a little
bit of sweetness and flavor. It is certainly more apricot
than it is pepper.
Comments: This place is
certainly worth a try and the catfish po-boy was fist rate with
a giant, expertly fried, catfish fillet. Others in our
party had the gumbo and the dirty rice (neither used recipes
common in Cajun Country, but both were tasty and satisfying).
Baby Kay's uses the boudin filling made locally by Schreiner's
Sausage Company. The review of the boudin filling, unfried
and unlinked, is
