Indy Weekender: Yatz

Yats, a local Cajun Creole place, has people raving.  With a mixture of neo-psychedelic paintings, jazz music and heaping plates of jambalaya and etoufee, it's no wonder why this place is always busy with happy costumers.  Yats' daily menu usually consists of 6-10 dishes, which cost between $5.75 and $6.75 for a combination. The menu is a chalk board at the counter which list the day's menu items.  After you order, you pick up your food at the counter as well.  There is no wait staff, but the food is always fresh because of its' rotating menu.  When I went to the Yats, I went to the one on Mass Ave. where I ordered spinach and mushroom etoufee.  It was good, but my friends told me their jambalaya was amazing.  So, if you can eat shellfish, I would suggest ordering the shrimp jambalaya.  Here are pictures of the place, the food, and the customers at Yats:

Yum!  Our food is ready.  Pick up at the counter.
Jambalaya = devoured! Spinach and mushroom etoufee = still eating.
