My sister Kim introduced me to Brenda’s French Soul Food in the City. I love the crawfish beignets, the gumbo and their po’boy sandwiches. Perfect place for brunch. Go early or on a week day. This place gets crowded, and quick. The dining room is about as big as a master bedroom in a medium sized home. (Not kidding.)

The crawfish beignets are stuffed with crawfish meat, cheese, onions and other spices. Deep-fried and then sprinkled with a salty cayenne pepper spice concoction.

Here I’m downing a shrimp po’boy with fries.

*Today I started my “pork, beef and/or chicken only once a week” routine. (So, that means I still eat seafood.) I’m trying to intake fewer calories, though I didn’t do so good in that department today. What am I doing? Trying to become a little leaner, gain a bit more definition.
