WE’RE PONCHATOULA PROUD!

me like family! I will continue to shop there and continue to tell friends, family and neighbors also ... this is what Cajun Country is all about!!! —M. La Vergne Hi, I wanted to let you know I visited your store in Morgan City this past Saturday for the first time and was so very impressed. —T. Turner CHEF NINO I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the Chef Nino cooking classes that you so graciously put on at your Gulf Shores store. Chef Nino is humorous, intelligent, a skilled and articulate chef, and offers great tips about the various recipes and ingredients. He sprinkles his cooking with both wit and a positive philosophy of life. We are returning to our “northern home” in Minnesota shortly, but will return next winter again. —George and Bonnie WE LIVE TO EAT The smoked Boston Butts I bought from my Kenner Rouses were simply the best we have ever had. I brought two of them to my brother’s house for our Easter BBQ and everyone went “nuts” over the butts. Now my family has designated me the “Smoked Butt.”Ha, ha! Our new Easter tradition! My sincere thanks to all of your beautiful Rouse teammembers. Everyone at this store has been friendly. It’s a beautiful store. —L. Fagot I had the pleasure of meeting Miss Charlotte at your Youngsville store and thanking her for making one of the most delicious Doberge cakes I have ever tasted. —M.Taylor Breakfast time with one of our favorite NOLA markets @RousesMarkets.

Bruce Thisgrocerystorechainjustgotbestinthe United states...their produce dept is crackn’ —C. Moncrease WELCOME TO ROUSES I have shopped at Store #22 in Slidell for the past 2 weekends. I wanted to let you know how special your staff is. Every employee greeted me and I mean every one. From the parking lot through the store, I was greeted and thanked for shopping at your store. The cashier was absolutely a joy to talk to. You put the customers first and that is so refreshing. I can honestly say no other grocery store in this area treats customers the way your store does. Thank you! I will be back! —D. Wheeler Going to Rouses #50 in Theodore with its great selection makes for a fun adventure rather than a dreaded chore to mark off the to do list. Best shopping around! Customers are treated like they are valued here. Highly recommend the experience. —S. Moire Love my Rouses on St. Charles in Houma . Only place I shop. —N. Espenan Love my Rouse on West Park in Houma !!!!!! Everyone on staff is the best. —T. Dugas I have been shopping at the Congress store in Lafayette for 5 years. Mitzi, Mike Kindal, Steven, the Flower Girls (as I call them), Kara, EVERYBODY treats
