Parkway Bakery & Tavern
No. 8The one to order
The fried shrimp po'boy, dressed (lettuce, tomato, pickles, mayo), and the roast beef with debris gravy if you're sharing
Po'boys on Leidenheimer bread since 1911, by the Bayou St. John; the roast beef with debris gravy is the city's messiest lunch.
Make it at home
Fried shrimp po'boy, dressed
40 min · 2 po'boys. Cornmeal-crusted shrimp fried hot and crisp, stuffed into light, crackly New Orleans French bread 'dressed' with lettuce, tomato, pickles and mayo. The bread should be airy enough to crush when you bite.
