Sit down and relax as you are treated to Chicken & Andouille Sausage Gumbo. Listen to a narrative history of Louisiana cuisine, starting with the culinary contributions of local American Indian tribes and leading to the arrival of the Europeans and West Africans who created its Creole flavors.

The guide Beth was very knowledgeable . We had a group of 16 and too big a group . The three food tasting restaurants were excellent . The visit to the spicy sauce shop & Praline shop was something we did walking around town & pretty much done to fill in time . Overall good but not intimate .

This was a really good tour. Beth was fun and knowledgeable. The spots were good and if I had more time I would revisit a few. I recommend for sure.

Mike did an amazing job keeping entertaining with stories and history about the food and how it relates to the local culture. Food was tasty and there was a great variety of stops. I would love to take his cocktail tour on my next visit!
