Order tips

  • · Blackened tenders bring the heat without sandwich mayo.
  • · Coleslaw over automatic Cajun fries when you want sides.
  • · Share fries if you get them — fun, not a solo salt lick.
  • · Classic sandwich is a treat; blackened plate is the smarter regular.
  • · Say no mayo clearly when you do order a sandwich.
