The Best Gumbo in New Orleans | Bon Appétit
"A word-of-mouth favorite whose gumbo is notable for a punchy spice profile—shrimp, chicken and sausage combine with what the chef calls a “crazy amount of spices”—and is typically served with a grilled-cheese sandwich and potato salad for a comforting, nostalgic combo. The chef’s hotel background informed his insistence on properly broken-down roux and resting the finished gumbo so flavors mellow. Popular menu choices include the Gumbo Combo, lobster mashed potatoes, BBQ shrimp fries and other signature items." - ByMegan Braden-Perry
