Yats the Ticket
The resto rotates eight to nine fresh-made daily entrees for an absurdly low $6.50 (add an extra buck for a split plate); because you're dangerously underweight, you'll also get a baguette hunk slathered in butter & jambalaya seasoning. Mainstays include thick gumbo (w/ crayfish, sausage, shrimp, & chicken), red beans and rice w/ andouille, and a spicy chili-cheese etouffée; nontraditionals include the sausage- and chicken-fueled Italiana in spicy tomato sauce, and the pulled pork/olives/capers/carrots Cuban-inspired dish "Ropa Vieja."Per our listings, this is a much-needed injection of Cajun hot sauce into the West Loop. We await your reports. Yats the way the cookie crumbles. Yats amore. Yats the way (uh huh uh huh) I like it. Yats yat.

They had yats in Indianapolis. It was the art kids hangout for lunch. No where else could you get as much GOOD food for the money. My tongue says no, but my gut says yes. Yats, here I come.
