 For my money, the best Louisiana cuisine in Seattle has always been
 Fran-Glor's Creole Cafe. I have not been there in quite some time so can't
 really say for sure that they are as good as they used to be. I have been
 to Burke's twice and thought it was pretty far from what one actually finds
 in Louisiana.
