Lake Charles, Louisiana: 1910 Restaurant & Wine Bar + Pujo Street Café; restaurant reviews

1910 Restaurant & Wine Bar  

949 Ryan St., (337) 602-6278. 

Located downtown in the Phoenix Building that commemorates the Great Fire of 1910 that burned several city blocks, the 1910 Restaurant & Wine Bar serves a refined Cajun and Creole fusion cuisine with a French backbone.  I savored my dinner of rich crawfish bisque, a spinach salad with gorgonzola and pecans, and grouper with a cremini mushroom puree.  King Cake bread pudding provided a festive, colorful, and delicious conclusion.

Pujo Street Café  

901 Ryan St., (337) 439-2054. 

Located in the Historic Downtown, this popular restaurant is within a building that has a history as rich as the tasty food.  Cajun and Creole dishes at Pujo Street Cafe are all freshly prepared.  For lunch, I very much enjoyed a cup of creamy shrimp bisque followed by a crab and avocado salad with housemade potato chips (pub chips).  Oysters, burgers (including a veggie version), and po-boys are also available.
