In October 2005, Jim
Sikes launched Jimmy’s as homage to fine dining in the New Orleans
tradition. Many of the dishes offered are inspired by dining
experiences in New Orleans and the surrounding area while he was a
graduate student at LSU and subsequent visits.
At
Jimmy’s, we take little things seriously. Our Po-boy buns come from
Gambino’s Bakery in New Orleans. So does the bread for our bread
pudding. Our coffee is rich French roast that we purchase especially for
us. The quality of tea we use to make iced tea is rare, which makes our
offering quite unique. We use fresh ingredients. We buy locally
when we can. We make our own sauces. We use real butter and sharp
Cheddar cheese. Our gumbo is “the real thing.” Don’t miss it. The same
is true for our bread and banana puddings. Our butter-baked crackers are
very tasty. Our wine list has won national awards. We pride ourselves on the finest selections. In
short, you are the reason we are here. If you want something special,
we’ll try to make it for you. In every case, remember that good food
takes time to prepare. Jim welcomes guests as if in his own home. We hope you will visit us and experience our cuisine and hospitality.
Laissez les bon temps rouler!!! |
