In April, I was fortunate enough to travel to Lafayette, Louisiana where I was able to work on an Oil & Gas company. Once in Lafayette, I worked with one of the best Senior Staff Accountants I have ever been on a team with which resulted in a very memorable 3 weeks. Highlights definitely include the seafood which is simply rampant around town, even in fast food joints. I was able to enjoy some of the best food in my life which included Cajun/Creole cuisine and seafood. I have been looking for an authentic Cajun restaurant in Vancouver since then but have been unable to locate a restaurant which serves boiled crawfish or crawfish etouffee which I am dieing to eat. A friend, Ivy who shares the same crawfish craving as me, recommended Crawfish King in Seattle. I will be going down very soon when the time is right. In the meantime, I am searching for a Cajun restaurant closer to the the US border. I met a girl in Nome who was from Bellingham, WA who mentioned that one existed around that area. If so, I will be frequenting that establishment very frequently once I find out where it is.
Thanks for the hospitality Michelle!
