Quote from: HappyGilmore on Today at 09:30:55 AMThere's a few out of the places & way out of the way place that still serve southeastern cuisine, but the main roadways downtown hotspots have all steered towards foreign food, mostly Greek & Asian and way too many coffee places that don't last.....Quote from: LilCerberus on April 21, 2026, 12:30:40 PMBefore the carpet baggers took over, Carolina style barbeque (pulled pork & vinegar) & pecan pie were a big deal around here.....Are they not anymore? Or did they change it? Never been there, but I have relatives that moved down.

New Orleans is home to a lot of food, so I'll probably miss some, or have to explain that this dish didn't originate from New Orleans, but around Lafayette.
We have: Poboys, gumbo, jambalaya, red beans and rice, Calas Here's a link to a nearly forgotten food item, Étouffée, Banana's Foster, Pralines, Sno-Balls, Doberge Cake. There are some that are extremely present in New Orleans that didn't originate from here (such as boudin, muffulettas, andoullie sausage) and some that have a longer origin (such as dirty rice and maque choux)
There's others, but I haven't had them yet; be it from little to no places serves it (Turtle soup) or it doesn't catch my interest (Oysters dishes)
