Florida to Texas

Best route has different meanings for people. What would you consider the best route? I-10 all the way to Winnie, TX 124. and through the Bolivar peninnsula and ferry over to Galveston. Oh yeah, do the by pass around New Orleans on 12.
Plan on a meal at Gaidos restaurant on Seawall Blvd. Have the bread pudding for dessert, it's huge so share. Great steaks and seafood.
