This three-hour walking tour brings you to six different locations and introduces you to mouth-watering Creole cuisine, including classic dishes such as gumbo, brisket, beignets and pralines. Try other local staples such as Italian-inspired muffulettas and the classic Louisiana Po' boy.

A few of the six stops on the tour will also have a fully-stocked bar, in case you'd like an adult beverage to accompany your Po' boy!
