Head up Interstate 49 to the little town of Sunset for a first-rate link of boudin and one of the best places around to try the famous Louisiana culinary icon: the meat pie.  This independent grocery store harkens back to a day before the corporate giants took over your every-day shopping needs.  Here they still do things the old-fashioned way.  Their meat pies, along with a fine selection of other hot items, can be located in the deli.  They are somewhat like a calzone or a Cornish pasty, but here the crust is more like a true pie crust, and whole thing is fried to golden perfection.  The finely minced meat filling is juicy and delicious—perfect as a snack or a meal.  The link is one of the top-rated boudins north of Interstate 10, and it is so good that it draws folks (famous, infamous, and common) from as far away as New Orleans seeking to satisfy their boudin cravings.
