Picayune, Pearl River, Slidell or somewhere before Baton Rouge that you would recommend for a great lunch spot?
Thanks!

Way, way, way overrated. I’ve eaten there a couple of times in the last year+. Very average.
Like our baseball team, it is not what it once was.

Paul’s Cafe in Ponchatoula is a good place for some southern cooking.

Only eaten at the one in Manchac once, Slidell once and I’d definitely go back to Manchac but it’s been a while so it may not be what it once was ?
I've never been to one in Slidell but family says its not the same. I've never had a bad experience in Manchac

Ended up at Paul’s Cafe in Ponchatoula.
Fried catfish was good, red beans and rice ok - as a girl from Thibodaux once told me - “why would I take the time to make red beans and rice when Popeyes has the best”
Wife got the Wednesday special of roast beef with mashed potatoes and gravy. Would not get again.
Loved the ambience of the place though and “downtown” Ponchatoula.

The Friday catfish at 4k in Carrollton is the best in the State.
Do we really want to debate the best catfish in the Sip? We will be here all night.

Sign me up for Carmack. But it all comes from the same few places. If there’s one thing MS is the best at, it’s catfish.

Not what OP asked for, but still. Hit the Starfish Cafe in BSL.

Guys Catfish in Vaiden!
But I haven’t been to Carmack in about 40 years but I would like to go again.

Oh, around Kosciusko and Winona, there is also a never-ending debate about whether Carmack or Guy's is the best. I'm sure that battle will keep raging as well.
