Unique Eats and Eateries: Unique Eats and Eateries of New Orleans (Paperback)

There is no city in America that bases its identity on its unique cuisine more than New Orleans. The geography that gives the city access to sea and land, a history that emphasizes food and drink, and laissez faire attitude that allows visitors and citizens alike to give way to the pleasures of the table, all culminate in an experience that can be had nowhere else on earth. Whether looking for the oldest restaurant in America, the newest avant garde restaurant experimenting with science, a place for a great drink supported by delicious nibbles, Cajun and Creole delicacies you have only read about, or the traditional reasons that the city's food has been heralded for almost three centuries, you will find the answers in Unique Eats and Eateries of New Orleans. Whether haute cuisine or low cuisine--champagne or alligator--you will find the sweet and savory road map in the pages of this book.
