For those who don’t know, Louisiana has one of the best restaurant scenes in the Southeast, and with state of Southern cooking and an emphasis on the culinary arts at an all-time high, that’s saying something.
When New Orleans’ food is mentioned on a national level, it somehow always reverts back to gumbo, which is the best around, although the city’s eateries certainly represent those dishes well, there’s so much more.

We wanted to try the empanadas so ordered a couple of those too. We ended loving those so much we ordered six to go to enjoy for lunch while we were driving the next day. Oooh and get the green sauce that comes with the empanadas for whatever you order! I want this in economy size!”

It is not barbecue as we know it in Chicago. It is sautéed in this oily, buttery, aggressively seasoned sauce and my husband thoroughly enjoyed it! The spicy whole potatoes that they give you as a appetizer is pleasantly different from any appetizer we’ve had and they are very, very good!”
