Last week when we dined at Shane's on Youree Drive it was too cold to eat on the patio but we enjoyed pigging out inside under the mural on the wall. It gave us time to ponder the advertisements running on a TV. The menu was also covered in ads. We were amused by what seemed to be an interesting way for a restaurant to expand its revenue.
When the red beans and rice arrived we were a little concerned. Our group's Louisiana cuisine expert (born and raised in Bunkie, LA) declared them to be pinto beans and not red beans. Of course, this sparked a debate on where to find traditional Louisiana dishes in SB Land. Shane's newest location just opened in Bossier on Texas Street near Barnhill's Buffet and Southern Maid Donut.

If that's a photo of Shane's beans, then, yep, they're pintos.
Yep, the photo don't lie. PINTO BEANS IN RED BEANS AND RICE?!?! Get a rope. That's just wrong, wrong, wrong.
As my kid is fond of saying "It makes the baby Jesus cry."
