oyster po'boy

Gulf Coast sub

An oyster po'boy is a sandwich from Louisiana featuring fried oysters on French bread, typically dressed with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and mayonnaise or remoulade.

The po'boy originated in New Orleans, where it remains a regional staple: We grabbed oyster po'boys from a stand on Magazine Street.
