People were eating crawfish prior to 1934 in the area (Breaux Bridge), as noted in an article in the Beaumont Enterprise newspaper. Two sisters at the Hebert Hotel who were cooking a crawfish dish, they called crawfish courtbuouillon. People rode the train to Breaux Bridge to eat it. When they stopped cooking, there was no crawfish available in restaurants until about 1942-43 when Ilene Champagne opened a restaurant.
