For the Lunar New Year, try these dishes for Baton Rouge Restaurant from the countries that are celebrating – the lawyer

For the Lunar New Year, try these dishes for Baton Rouge Restaurant from the countries that are celebrating – the lawyer

In my family, we celebrated most of the Chinese calendar holidays plus the American. Growing up in Arkansas, it was mostly a lot of sweat and some interesting alternative festive traditions.

The usual thanks were not part of my upbringing. My family went to Golden Corral (because we children could eat turkey there and my mother could eat literally anything else, because in her opinion, “Turkey is dry and terrible”). And there was church sweat leading to this holiday.

There is a difference between the way a person celebrates the Dragon Boat Festival (usually in early summer) and the festival in the mid -fall (in October), but in a city in Arkansas without Dragonov’s boats, it was a curse for both.

Wednesday is the beginning of the Lunar New Year, which in my childhood meant two things: money in red envelopes (which is a symbol of good wishes and good luck for the New Year) and Potlucks. So, so much sweat in 14 days. If I was born in East Asia somewhere, I would probably know the certain traditions for every day or have a specific attachment to certain foods to it. As I wasn’t, I usually mark the holiday with good Asian food.

This year, living nine hours from home, my holiday will be much less, but the scene of Baton Rouge’s food has many options. In no specific order, here are my favorite dishes or inspired by countries that celebrate the Lunar New Year.

PHO combination by pho cafe

3851 S. Sherwood Forest Blvd., Baton Rouge







Pho in pho cafe

PHO combination by pho cafe




When you eat in a place that has a dish in the name for the first time, you get this dish. The PHO combination in Pho Cafe is not disappointed. It is ideal for a cold winter day and garnished with a generous portion of meatballs, a well -made tub, flank and rarely eye circle. The soup is rich, not too salty, and the noodle portion is enough to fill, but if you find yourself need more soup or more broth, your wish is their command (for a $ 3 allowance).

Banh Mi by Hung Thinh Oriental Super Market

1134 Marque Ann Drive, Baton Rouge







Suspended Super Market

Hung Thinh Super Market should only go to Banh Mi on weekends.




Banh Mi by Hung Thinh Oriental Super Market is not just for the sandwich (which is excellent) or the choice of meat (which are many). It’s about trying to watch someone to make your Banh Mi fresh on the main floor of the store. The market does not always serve Banh Mi, but from 7am to 2pm Saturday and Sunday, they have a table created with all the fixed ones. Banh Mi are nice and toasted (optional), then packed ready for lunch on the go.

Chicken Sataa’s pasta from the Patio Tex-Mex yard fusion

7655 Old Hammond Highway, Baton Rouge

Chicken Sataaevi pasta from the courtyard is a dish influenced by Southeast Asia. While humans in both Thailand and Malaysia claim that the meat of meat is thought to be descended from Indonesia and is inspired by Indian kebabs. This is the perfect meal with a synthesis for the concept of an Asian courtyard inspired by an Asian courtyard.

The inner courtyard of the chicken is a sati is good. Paid with Poblano sauce and pasta, it’s great. It is served with a side of vegetables, chicken sataaevi pasta are always a hit when I take my friends/family to eat.

Japchae Ot Bowl by Okki Tokki

549 Main St., Baton Rouge







Japchae Ot Bowl by Okki Tokki

The Japchae OT Cup, on the left, in Okki Tokki is a creative consumption of Korean street food.




Oki Toki is like the chipot of Korean street food. The OT sauce with Gochujang is a creamy version, not so spicy, and the potato noodles have a nice texture. KFC (Korean fried chicken) also has an excellent texture and is a fun addition to packed and economical food. At $ 13 per bowl, Oki Toki is great for a quick bite downtown (with debris).

Thai pepper Pad See ew is a great meal every day.




Ever since I moved to Baton Rouge, I have been hunting for good Thai food. The place I return to again and again is Thai pepper. If you blink while driving on Florida Boulevard, you can miss it, but the interior feels like a home house and service is always friendly. The pad see EW here is star. The vegetables are fresh and the sauce is not too superior. You can try the individual ingredients mixed with the fried noodles. Perfect pickup for the middle of the week or every day.

Omar from the Asian Sea Gifty House

11294 Florida Blvd., Baton Rouge

For Thanksgiving last year, my family escaped from our tradition of Golden Coral and ate at the Asian seafood house, which is very clearly called and widely considered the best Chinese food in the city.

Instead of Turkey, our main dish was lobster, which disappeared from the plate faster than I could take out my phone and take a picture. The lobster was fresh and seasoned well. The most popular scent, ginger and scalion are most popular for a reason. It’s delicious.

Boba and Ube Cheesecake by Besteas Sip & Bite







BESTAAS SMALL

The Surprise Cup Boba by Besteas Sip & Bite is a 12 -ounce cup with a surprise plush keychain.




1082 W. Lee Drive, Suite B, Baton Rouge

A new player on the Boba stage, Besteas Sip & Bite is a boba sweet place with fun drinks, Tiktok viral cups and incredible Ube Cheesecake.

Like a little Boba snob, I am pleased to announce that the drinks are not too sweet, and a plush in my glass to surprise it was delightful. But let’s talk about a cheesecake. The layers of purple Ube cheesecake create a soft sweet treat, which is softer and more recently as a cake than his western cheesecake counterpart.

The Boba store also serves Vietnamese more moms and snacks, such as spring rolls or taijaki. I can’t wait to get back to try more.
