602672 Tue Mar 10 13:25:47 -0700 2009 10 9 New Orleans 0 4491878 I'm headed back home for a few days and would like to get a good soft shell crab poboy. Any recommendations? Tue Mar 10 13:25:47 -0700 2009 112553 thinouse 1 4492035 Not exactly in season... anything you have would be frozen, watered down version of softies. Tue Mar 10 14:03:50 -0700 2009 4491878 255111 Samuel Smith 2 4492048 Not true. Several local shedding operations are producing softshells....not everything is frozen right now.

Harbor Seafood in Kenner is the way to go. Wed Mar 11 07:21:57 -0700 2009 4493214 78662 uptownlibrarian 4 4494080 I disagree - R&O's portions are smaller compared to the Galley, and they don't always have soft shells Wed Mar 11 08:29:58 -0700 2009 4493847 245819 mimadeli 4 4494621 I do find I spend more at The Galley; but their boiled shrimp are my faves, and they have killer crabmeat au gratin.

Not cheap, like $14 but worth every bite. Wed Mar 11 03:49:58 -0700 2009 4491878 15087 Tchoupitoulas 2 4495186 Two Tony's has a softshell poboy and a sofshell crab platter. I have heard about R & o's softshel parm poboy as well. Wed Mar 11 13:15:07 -0700 2009 4493509 272222 22ndstreet 1 4496466 When in season, which usually starts sometime in March according to the Louisiana Seafood promotion folks (although I have not seen many soft shells around so far this year), the best place to get a soft shell in a sandwich is Casemento's. Not exactly a po'boy...but just darn good. Wed Mar 11 20:05:21 -0700 2009 4491878 264962 DavidIB
