For those interested, just wanted to pass along news that Jackie's is featuring a special Fat Tuesday menu tomorrow with special drinks and dishes. So if you want to take advantage and celebrate before the Lenten season begins, here's your chance.
And wear a Mardi Gras mask and get a free drink. That's not an official Jackie's offer, but if you do it, just go in and demand it. Tell them SoCo says you deserve it.

Damn! Those drinks look fine.
The vegetarian jambalaya is probably going to be a disappointment, though.
Happy Mardi Gras, Soco!
Thanks SR. Did you do your own veg jambalaya instead?
You know, I've never done a veggie jambalaya, but since you mention it, I think I will. I'll try to remember to let you know how it turns out, and even take a picture.
I do make a mean Hoppin' John.
