Curbside crawfish: Here’s where you can get your mudbug fix

by Marielle Songy | May 4, 2020

Unfortunately, proper crawfish boils are on a temporary hiatus, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t bring the crawfish boil home with you! Lots of places are boiling up the good stuff to-go for quick and easy ordering and pickup. Get some crawfish, grab a cold beverage and hop onto Zoom and pinch the tails with friends. Here are some spots that are offering crawfish (and other seafood) curbside.
