Washingtonians/Marylanders: Where to get a good Po'boy?

[floriflee]

I know that perhaps this is a strange question, but does anyone from the Washington/MD area know of a good place to find a decent Po'boy? I am craving one like something fierce this afternoon so I'm trying to find a place somewhat nearby that I can convince the hubby to go to....

Oh, it's good to like food again!

Popeyes?

I've never had a Po' Boy, I think I've seen it advertised at Popeyes though.

Nooooo... A Po'boy is a sandwich filled with mayo, shredded lettuce, and fried goodness generally on the order of fried shrimp, oysters, catfish or something that tasks good breaded. It's a New Orlean's specialty. Mmmmm....

I remember a resturant in Arlington VA that had sandwithces like that. THe problem is I can't remember the name

Damn. Now that's a good question.

I don't know, I've only ever had a po'boy in New Orleans, so I've been googling. Bardia, Acadiana, Johnny's Half Shell, Local 16, Hank's Oyster Bar...

I've never been to any of them though. My father in law loved Johnny's Half Shell. Most places only seem to have oyster po'boys though.

Popeyes?

I've never had a Po' Boy, I think I've seen it advertised at Popeyes though.

They're not even selling those now but one was a Chicken Strip Po' Boy, which isn't close to what she's wanting.

I've never heard of that. I think the best place for you to find one would be your kitchen...

sorry...
