I've been hearing rumors about a food truck in Robinson that is so big, with jaws so powerful, that it has been known to carry away small children and even full-grown adults.
Not really. I've just been watching River Monsters a lot. So now, I want to write every recon blog in the voice of Jeremy Wade, inasmuch as I want to make my normal recon blogs into races-against-time to catch a predator before it can cause further damage to humanity. But then I suppose once I caught the restaurant, I would just release it right back into the wild as if there was no reason to catch it in the first place. Also, I'm going to end each blog with the phrase "Now I'm going to catch the really big one!"
If you haven't seen River Monsters, I apologize for the derailing of this blog. Basically it's Crocodile Hunter crossed with just a normal fishing show.
Anyway, I did hear about a Cajun food truck in Robinson. So I assumed it would be a product of The Boudain Shack. Because why would there be more than one Cajun place in Robinson?
To find out (please read this in a British accent like Wade's), I traveled into the deepest part of Robinson to The Boudain Shack for lunch with my friend Kaley Eggers. I asked the locals there about the food truck that had been spotted nearby. They informed me there was a food truck that appeared on some weekends in the Brookshire's parking lot. But the mysterious Cajun truck was not associated with them.
While at The Boudain Shack, I enjoyed a bowl of crawfish etouffee and a crawfish boudain po'boy. All of it was fantastic, the crawfish boudain especially so (you should see what spellchecker is doing with this paragraph). I'm telling you, the crawfish boudain is absolutely crave-able.
I also learned something unique about The Boudain Shack: they don't fry anything. Owner Angela Everett decided if she opened a restaurant, she wasn't going to fry anything. She thinks there's plenty of fried food in the world without contributing to it. I dig that thinking.
One more bite: Now I'm going to catch the really big one!
