Crawfish boil @ Cajun Connection - March 7th 4:00 p.m.

Crawfish sesason has finally arrived, and Cajun Connection is having one of their many crawfish boils of the season the weekend of March 6th through the 8th(while supplies last).

I will be headed there of Saturday the 7th for dinner , and would enjoy some fellow LTH company if anyone is interested.

Last year 4 lbs of crawfish, and a cup of gumbo went for the bragain price of $20.

This is a chance for those who have not yet been to Ron's to try his regular menu, or the mudbugs, and see why many consider Cajun Connection the place for gumbo, crawfish, etouffee, jambalaya, red beans and rice, boudin, frog legs, alligator, etc in Chicagoland.

Cajun Connection does not take reservations, so it is a good plan to get there as they open at 4:00. Otherwise there will likely be a line out the door by 5:00, especially when there is a crawfish boil. Depending on turnout I doubt all could sit together, but there are a few larger tables to accomodate a small(10-15 people) group.

I hope to see some LTHr's out there, and would enjoy having a meal with anyone who heads out. I will be there at 4:00 p.m. on the 7th, and look forward to seeing some familiar faces or some folks I have not had the pleasure to meet yet.

Reply here on the thread if interested.

HI,

This sounds very attractive. Unfortunately I will be out of town. If there is another weekend this might happen once more, please advise.

Regards,

I'm on their email list, so I will let you know when I hear of the next one.

one week away... lots of views, no takers.

like I said in the original post, Id enjoy bending and elbow, and cracking some mudbugs with other LTHr's. Either way I'll be there.

Jim, I may join you. Will be in B-N earlier that day for a chess tournament, and may head back up. Will drop you a line later this week.

sounds good, I hope you can make it, it is worth it.

I am very tempted to join you. And I just got back from New Orleans this morning! If anyone would like a ride, please PM me! I really don't want to drive out there by myself!

Im gonna try to tackle the whole 4 lbs(I have failed in the past)... I'll p.m. you, and let you know when the next boil is, and be sure to let me know when you guys are doing one, Ill come into the city for sure.

I too would love to try this place, but am busy this weekend. Definitely let me know when "next time" is.

Anyone planning to come out to Cajun Connection pm me, and I will get a table for that number when I get there.

If other LTHr's are coming out to CC I will probably be solo, if not one is coming out I will bring my wife and toddler with me.

so far it looks like only one adventurous soul(glennpan) is going to come out to CC for some crawfish.

I am heading out for a pork, kraut, and dumpling lunch in Warrenville, but should be back early this afternoon to check if anyone else may have reconsidered & is heading out for some fun.
