Where to Find New Orleans’s Most Iconic Dishes

"In 1889, Antoine’s (known as the second-oldest restaurant in America) created oysters Rockefeller when the escargot supply was low, naming it for the richest man in the world because of its green color. Restaurants take an oyster on the half shell and top it with a pureed blend of parsley and other herbs before baking it. Though Antoine’s version is great, Galatoire’s bright green version is a favorite — watch how it’s made at the iconic restaurant." - Clair Lorell, Eater Staff
