(Lafayette, Louisiana) - Bread pudding is part of the culture in South Louisiana, so we asked, "Where's the best bread pudding found out in Acadiana?"

A few nights ago, my family and I were at a local restaurant where their menu included bread pudding. Having tried it on a few occasions, I knew we had to get it again. Well, while we were sitting in the restaurant, I asked myself, "Is this the best bread pudding in Acadiana?"

Not knowing for sure, I asked on social media who has the best bread pudding in Acadiana, and many listeners chimed in with their opinions, so I will highlight those here.

Ingredients Used in Bread Pudding

Most of the bread puddings you eat for dessert here are made up of French Bread, Eggs, Milk, Sugar, Butter, Vanilla Extract, and Cinnamon or Nutmeg.

Some bakers like to use Bourbon, Pecans, Raisins, etc in their mixtures, while some may add their own secret to the ingredients. And that's what makes every bread pudding different and great. Bakers put their own "twist" on the ingredients.

So, let's get to the places in Acadiana that you say have the best bread pudding. I think you'll recognize most of these places and/or names.
