Spicy Cajun Burgers + Bayou Blues

Last night was a blast! The weekend was finally here and I went with a group of friends to the T.G.I.F Downtown Alive block party to celebrate the end of the work week and the beginning of the weekend. Something that Cajuns love to do! We got a great parking space, which is no easy feat, at this event. On our way to Parc Sans Souci, I spotted an old friend on the patio at Stan's Nightclub and Grille. I decided to stop and visit with the table of four, who were ordering some fabulous Cajun cuisine. 

 Suddenly, I was famished and I ordered my favorite item on the menu, Shrimp En Brochette w/ a house salad. Sinfully delicious! Just as we finished dinner, a band was starting to play in the club, so we all decided to move over and listen to some good old bayou blues. Let the good times roll. cher! Hope that all of my bloggie friends are having a fun weekend, too!
