NOLA is slang for New Orleans, Louisiana.
A Po’Boy is THE iconic sandwich in Creole/Cajun cuisine. It’s made with French bread (crusty, not the soft variety)- sometimes buttered- and usually “fully dressed” with mayo, shredded lettuce & tomato slices. The fillings are usually some kind of fried seafood. The roast beef Po’Boy is the major exception. The buttered bread is the same, but it’s usually just filled with sliced roast beef with a good brown gravy.
Tabasco or other hot sauces are typical additions for most fans.
EDIT: forgot one- the French Fry po’ boy!
It’s not common, but notable if for no other reason than it’s on the menu at Dooky Chase. That restaurant is a historic part of both creole cuisine AND the civil rights movement, so…

Mmmmm ... po' boy. I think I have french bread and shrimp in the freezer come to think of it.
Buccee's, Wawa, and Sheetz come to mind as chains bent on destroying the line between fast food and gas station.

Buccee's is determined to erase the line between Walmart and Exxon.
Even smaller operations are getting in on it.
Between D/FW and Austin, there’s the Czech Stop in West, Texas, attached to a full-service Czech bakery, with terrific kolaches. It’s a MUST if you’re on I-35…and it’s not even the best bakery in West.
There’s an exit somewhere between D/FW and Houston that’s served by a family-owned place called Woody’s. They have a location on both the northbound and the southbound sides of the freeway- one managed by the Dad, one by the daughter. Identical offerings at each.

Dinner out tonight, at a place that tends to play more modern Christmas music, so I expect to be out. I heard George Michael's voice on an Instagram post earlier on and was sure i was out. Fortunately it was just "Careless Whispers."
