Ultimate Cajun Cookbook?
I have a small collection of random cajun / creole cookbooks, but I am curious if there is one that sums up the food and culture to a T. Everything from the standard fare to the most unusual….
Been cooking cajun/ creole food since I visited back in 96, but the recipes are getting old…
Thanks!
prejean’s in lafayette has a great cookbook, which includes many of the recipes served in their restaurant.
it has gumbo, crawfish dishes, and desserts. i’m a picky eater and like prejean’s versions of the usual cajun favorites.

the people were very nice, good service, good advice to newcomers, the Dallas Stars game was on and the crowd was lively.
All in all, a great place to go for cajun food. Their motto: “we did cajun before cajun was cool”.
It’s a one of a kind, long lived restaurant. My kind of place.
