Singing the praises of crawfish pie.

There's a reason why Hank Williams, Sr. mentioned crawfish pie in his famous song "Jambalaya" so many years ago - and that's because crawfish pie has been a delicious Louisiana staple for many generations. At Louisiana Living we are proud to offer you one of best brands of crawfish pie ever made - Five Li'l Cajuns - produced by Victor's Cafeteria in New Iberia, Louisiana.

Five Li'l Cajuns means one fantastic crawfish pie!

There are many reasons why Five Li'l Cajuns Crawfish Pies are better than the rest, and one of those is that they use light, flaky puff pastry instead of common pie dough like so many others. Each crawfish pie is handmade, starting from scratch, and cooked in small batches for consistent quality. The "holy trinity" of Cajun cooking - fresh onions, bell pepper and celery - are sautéed then slowly simmered in a rich base. Only the freshest crawfish tails are used and there are no fillers. And as we mentioned before, there's no tough pie dough here - just delicate, flaky pastry along with plenty of succulent crawfish in every bite.

A tasty treat from a special family.

Founded in 1969, Victor's Cafeteria is a family-owned and operated business run by folks who value tradition, family and good eating. Victor's first developed their crawfish pie as an occasional treat for their customers, but it wasn't long before the Five Li'l Cajuns brand was launched and the fame of these crawfish pies began to spread all the way from New Orleans to that "other" L.A. The bottom line is that the people at Victor's never cut corners when it comes to cooking, and that's why you'll never find a better crawfish pie. We invite you to try some Five Li'l Cajuns Crawfish Pies today - they are great for lunch, supper, parties or anytime as a special treat. C'est bon, cher!
