About two years ago we went to a little hole in the wall juke joint out in the middle of nowhere. Turns out it might be one of the coolest things about where we live. We've been meaning to go back ever since we moved back to Louisiana, and finally made the trip on Saturday night! It was a night filled with blues music, late night food, and friends. And then we topped off an amazing night and weekend by waking up late Sunday morning and eating Canean's favorite Sunday breakfast, waffles and bacon. What could be better than Saturday night juke joints and Sunday morning waffles?
Not much...I'll tell ya!
It was the perfect weekend filled with all of the things that feed my soul. Music, food, friends, and most of all, Canean.
Teddy's Juke Joint is an old house (where Teddy himself was born) converted into a little bar and stage where real blues musicians come and still play on a weekly basis. It's Louisiana as Louisiana can get and that's what I love most about it. There isn't an inch of empty ceiling or wall space because it's all filled with souvenirs, license plates from all states, mardi gras beads, and other collectibles from over the years. It's probably one of the only places where you will find all walks of life, races, and ages all brought together for one thing...good music.
