Our favorite boudin from Cajun Country!! Since 1993, Don's Specialty Meats have been making the same great homemade boudin, voted "best" 9 years, and cracklins that are ubiquitously known as South Louisiana's best! From boudin and cracklins to plate lunches and specialty meats, the great quality and spicy Cajun flavor remain consistent. Homemade hamburgers, po-boys, pistollettes and stuffed bread also please the palates of our loyal fans around the globe.
Acadian Village is a 32-acre private park in Lafayette. Established in the 1970s, the Acadian Village is dedicated to preserving Acadian history and is one of the best things to do in Lafayette LA. Farmland has been converted into an 1800s Cajun village that consists of eleven buildings, seven of which are authentic 19th century homes donated by ancestors of the families who owned the structures and lived in them. The buildings demonstrate the authentic construction techniques of the period with cypress wood, high peaked roofs, mud walls, and wooden pegs.
