Based  on previous posters there is not univeral agreement whether
LE is good and authentic. I like the place and it is one of our
standard cheap eats places or just when we feel like creole or
an etouffe (sp?) - these come in veg, chicken and andoule sausage. The
y also do gumbo, roas chichen, seafood and blackened specials 
(crawfish boils sometimes) various sandwitches (I like the 
mufuleta (sp?). Various desserts - I like the bread pudding with
butter rum (?) sauce - and pralines for total sugar out. 
At the risk of flames I was in New Orleans last fall (Mr. Bs , Mothers,
Acmes, Palm Court some of the stops) I purposely stoped by LEE
the following week adn thought IMHO it stacke up well. But
I am not a NO native - just too infrequent visitor.
The beignes are good too as stated - and the request amount of 
Powdered Sugar.b

Another poster wanted location - go to Bethesda and get on 
Arlington Blvd. Turn Westward at EuroMotors (away from the Giant
towards Betehsda Crab House) both are abt 1 short block down - LE 
on the right (BCH further on left).
