Brett Anderson of the Times Picayune has an article about the evolution of a bbq truck into a restaurant.

QUOTE
For the past two years, the purple, kitchen-equipped truck called Que Crawl has drawn crowds with its pulled pork sandwiches, spicy grit fries and Southern side dishes. It's some of New Orleans' best food on wheels, particularly when hunger strikes during a wee-hours set break at Tipitina's, outside which Que Crawl is often parked.

Last week, the business took a step into the less funky world of stand-alone restaurants when owner Nathanial Zimet opened Boucherie in the old Iris location in Carrollton.

Some menu samples: fried boudin balls with garlic aioli, mussels with collard greens and crispy grit crackers, ribs with house pickled vegetables, kaffir lime seared puppy drum with grilled green onions and roasted beets.

"It's small plates and large plates, not appetizers and entrees, which doesn't lend itself to people ordering multiple plates," Zimet said. "We have a mission not to charge more than $15 for anything."


Ribs look good on china plates, too

Boucherie, 8115 Jeanette St., 504.862.5514.
My only complaint was that if they need to charge me $30 because they're robbing the duck to pay the boar they might as well give me a more substantial portion of flour, water, and bits of meat.
