by southernbelle22 at Citysearch

- Pros: inexpensive, tasty, fun

Lucky dog. Lucky dog. Put a hot steamy...

If you read Confederacy of Dunces, you'll understand why Lucky Dogs are the real New Orleans thing!
- Pros: delicious, real New Orleans, characters serving u
- Cons: unnutritious, heartburn city, it's really bad for u
