Hearth Blackened Redfish with Cornbread Dressing is a large plate menu item served with crawfish cornbread dressing, hearth grilled asparagus, and blackened crab sauce at Restaurant 1796 on the grounds at Myrtles Plantation, St. Francisville, LA. We took a trip back in September, 2022 to celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary, visiting plantations in Louisiana and Mississippi. Our first stop was at the Myrtles Plantation in St. Francisville, LA. I had secured dinner reservations in advance at Restaurant 1796 and had a grand time in their main dining room.
The blackened redfish was delightfully delicate and spicy, the cornbread dressing reminded me of a holiday meal, but it paired well with the redfish and asparagus. I highly recommend dinner at Restaurant 1796.
