Po'Boy

Crusty, airy New Orleans French bread stuffed with fried shrimp, oysters, roast beef, or catfish — 'dressed' with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayo, and best eaten with a stack of napkins. Born during the 1929 streetcar strike as free food for 'poor boys.'

Try it at: Johnny's Po-Boys or Parkway Bakery
