Great Taste Coaster

Went to Prudhomme’s on Tuesdays and it looks like crawfish season is upon us. We were informed that “buckets o bugs” were available, “alive until we kill ‘em,” and that was an offer we couldn’t resist. Started out with some hush puppies, natch. When the crayfish arrived we went to town. Not a lot of meat in those suckers. Like a tiny lobster, the tail is where it’s at.

All in all, it was a fun experience. I wouldn’t want to make a habit of it, since you go through a bit of work for a small payout, but if you’re looking to try out some fresh crawdads and live anywhere near Columbia, PA, I highly suggest stopping by Prudhomme’s Lost Cajun Kitchen and chowing down on some mudbugs.

Those who know me know that I am on a continual quest for the world’s best Reuben sandwich, so when we went to the Starlite Diner the other night I decided to order one of theirs. Being no stranger to the Starlite, I wasn’t expecting much. It’s a decent diner with excellent breakfasts, but I’ve found the rest of the menu to be hit or miss.

It was served open face, heavy on the cheese and heavy on the dressing. A little light on the corned beef if you ask me, but overall quite good. Although, with the Round The Clock Diner a mere 2.7 miles away (East on 30), I’d probably rather just go there instead.

As a side note, it would appear that the Starlite will be changing owners and will become the Nautilus Diner.

Got any Reuben suggestions for me? Post them in the comments.
