There are many places that don't do cajun creole right, yes even in the Bayou state we get it wrong, however, Marilynn's is known for southern Louisiana's culinary cornerstone, red beans, and rice.  Who doesn't love slow-cooked red beans with smoked andouille sausage, tasso, and ham? The crawfish etoufée, chicken and andouille jambalaya, seafood gumbo, and shrimp creole are just some of the reasons why this old gas station stays busy.

Dessert is a no-brainer when you eat here. "Thou shalt save room for dessert" is a new rule I just made up for this article. Let me just list off the fabulous dessert options bananas foster, warm chocolate brownie, oh and of course beignets and coffee are served all day.

What dessert steals the Show? The Louisiana-style bread pudding is famous. So famous that onlyinyourstate.com claims that this Shreveport spot is home to the best bread pudding in the world. What a bold claim. Is it true?

The article caught me eye "The Best Bread Pudding In The World Is Located At This Louisiana Gas Station Turned Restaurant".

This New Orleans-style hug in a plate is just what the doctor ordered for an instant boost of dopamine. I mean, it's bread pudding served with a chocolate espresso sauce. I can't sit and describe how good it is, however, I can confirm that the bold claim of it being the best bread pudding in the world is pretty dead on.
