If you’re a foodie visiting New Orleans, then there’s no better way to find local haunts than to go on a tour with a local whose family have worked in the food industry for over 200 years. Find out insider secrets about the city’s food scene and taste lots of delicious dishes along the way. Potential treats you could try include chargrilled oysters, ‘gumbo’ (local stew), ‘muffuletta’ (an Italian sandwich), ‘beignets’ (doughnuts), pralines, and more.
Here we will try local favorites! This is where my great great great grandpa got his first job after immigrating from France!

Here we often end our tour with one of my favorite drinks, it’s a daiquiri with an Irish twist! Frenchmen Street is where many local musicians play and where you can find many local residents in the evening hours dancing and enjoying live jazz, soul, funk, zydeco and my favorite the brass bands out on the street.
