Good video I must say. Now, if ya wanna seriously eat then take it from a New Orleans native. Here's where you should go, but not all in one day of course. The first stop is Deanie's seafood and order 2 seafood platters, one fried and the other grilled or broiled with cold beer. Go to Buster Holmes for Red Beans and rice. Willie Mays chicken shack for fried chicken. The Praline Connection for all the soul food dishes. Beignets are a must from Cafe du Monde'. Go to Maspero's for French Onion soup, Red Beans and Rice, and incredible sandwiches. Shrimp or roast beef poboys are a must. Mother's is good but there are other better places to get poboys. Muffalata at central grocery in the French Quarter is good, but they don't heat the sandwich and Muff's are better in my opinion when heated. And yes, the Hurricane from Pat O's is the way to go. Bananas Fosters is to be found at Brennan's restaurant and the show is as good as the food.

Dragos charbroiled oysters is a MUST. Fried shrimp poboy from Johnnys is a MUST (be prepared to wait and take to-go essentially. Instead of the French quarter cafe du monde, its worth taking a drive or taxi to city parks locationthe ambience of the oak trees and little bayou there will make you feel completely relaxed and almost in the countryside. For good pastries, I love gracious bakery and haydels in the garden district. And pro-tip, not the best food in the city but Magazine Street is as enjoyable and interesting to walk as the historic French quarter, with much more locals. Have fun!

I am dying to visit New Orleans, but I'd rather eat dirt than rice (literally, grew up eating my mud pies and it's quite yummy. also, I am in the mountains of Tennessee, I hate seafood, and detest alcohol. I also loathe loud people. So I am guessing it wouldn't be my thing downtown, but I do want to tour the garden district and the beautiful old homes. And eat beignets. And maybe a fried oyster. Do they know what fatback gravy is for breakfast? But still, none of that food looked very good or well prepared. But I am spoiled to my mama's cooking.

Getting ready to go to NOLA next weekend and checking out videos to get my mind ready. One thing (and only one) I disagree with here is getting your Hurricane at Pat O's. They may have invented it, but it is not how it was originally. Go to Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar for your Hurricane instead. Made with actual fruit juices not the red chemical powder mix at Pat O's and 151 rum floated on top.

As a local, I can say that one of the best foods tourists don't know about is buttermilk drops. Beignets have their place and are always great, but buttermilk drops, which are basically large donut holes covered in glaze (cake donut, not yeast, are one of the foods I associate with living here that tourists don't seem to know about.

Hey everyone! I've just returned from New Orleans and real quick - Central Grocery is currently closed. They're remodeling after the recent hurricane damage so you'll have to get your muffaletta elsewhere. A local told me Napoleon House has good ones but I didn't get a chance to go. I hope to next time.

I have been played this video many times, more than 5 times to our Virtual Program for Differing Disability Adults. I mean the way you introduced was really great! One of them has started to ask me. Can we GO there? when we can go there? We're in Upper Marlboro, MD. Thank you so much.

I'll add: DON'T restrict yourself to typical Cajun cuisine. You can find nearly any type of cuisine from anywhere in the world in New Orleans. Lebanese? Cuban? Thai? Salvadoran? Ethiopian? You can find it all here
Pro tip: DON'T breathe in/out your nose when biting into a beignet

Best Hurricane is hands down at Laffitte's Blacksmith--still made with fruit juices as opposed to Pat O'brians which uses a powdered mix now. Also, Central Grocer has the original Muffaletta, but the best is IN the french market at Alberto's Cheese and Wine Shop

Hey Wolter! Mardi Gras is coming. Any specific restaurants that you can think of that has Red beans & rice, Jambalya and Alligator tails as a combo dish? We went to The Cajun Cabin many years ago, and loved it, but, sadly is no longer there.
