Description

Meet your guide, a local with a family that's been in the local food industry since the early 1800s. Start your tour at the French Market, where your guide's great-great-great-grandpa got his first job after immigrating from France. Work up an appetite after trying local dishes at the French Market and cross over into the Faubourg Marigny to check out Frenchmen Street, known for its live music. Walk from the Mississippi River to Jackson Square to see the St. Louis Basilica, Presbytere, Cabildo, and Cafe du Monde. Seize the chance to try the muffuletta, Po-Boys, chargrilled oysters, crawfish, gumbo, beignets, and pralines throughout your tour. End your journey right on Frenchmen Street, where you can find locals in the evening hours enjoying live jazz, soul, funk, zydeco, and brass bands out on the street.
