Join your guide in the French Quarter in the afternoon to embark on a delightful food tour of New Orleans, starting at SoBou, one of the three esteemed restaurants owned by the renowned Commander’s Palace family. Relax and enjoy three street food-inspired dishes that highlight the modern flavors of New Orleans: fried pork cracklings, boudin balls with Creole mustard, and a BBQ Shrimp beignet.
Immerse yourself in the rich history of Louisiana cuisine, beginning with the culinary influences of local American Indian tribes and continuing with the arrival of Europeans and West Africans who shaped its Creole flavors. Learn about the distinctive geography of southern Louisiana and the linguistic roots of numerous local dishes, from beignets and étouffée to gumbo and jambalaya.
Feel free to purchase a drink at the full bar before heading to the Pepper Palace Hot Sauce Bar, where you can taste a variety of hot sauces, BBQ sauces, dry rubs, seasonings, and more.
The third stop is Leah’s Pralines, a candy shop founded in 1933. Discover its history and savor a Creole praline along with a sample of bacon pecan brittle.
Next, indulge in two New Orleans classics: the muffuletta and the po-boy. Both are served at the eclectic NOLA Po-boys, a local spot with an extensive menu. Discuss the 19th and 20th-century history of New Orleans’ immigrants as you enjoy the fried catfish po-boy on freshly baked New Orleans-style French bread, followed by the slightly warmed muffuletta: an Italian-style sandwich with ham, salami, mortadella, provolone cheese, mozzarella cheese, and New Orleans-style olive salad.
The next destination is Tujague’s, the second-oldest restaurant in New Orleans, offering classic Creole cuisine since 1856. Explore the culinary contributions of the French Market butchers while savoring a delicious dish: the Bavarian-style slow-cooked beef brisket.
Your final stop is Dickie Brennan’s Tableau, where you will relish a savory Seafood Gumbo. Tableau is owned and operated by a distinguished local restaurateur and is located in the heart of New Orleans, at the historic Jackson Square. By the end of the tour, happy hour will have begun at Tableau.
The walking tour covers approximately one and a half miles (2.4 km) at a relaxed pace.
