Where to Find the Best Gumbo in New Orleans

"While catfish is the star at the casual neighborhood spot on Freret Street, High Hat’s gumbo is worth a shoutout. The chicken and andouille gumbo “Ya-Ya” is thick and dark, loaded up with the good stuff, all for a super-reasonable $8 cup. Try the sweet potato salad on the side." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell, Eater Staff
