"On November 4 at The Historic New Orleans Collection, Pig Tales, hosted by food writer and historian Dr. Jessica B. Harris, spotlights the history, culinary uses, and cultural place of pork and culminates with a reception of seven local chefs reinterpreting a traditional Acadiana boucherie, featuring dishes from Vance Vaucresson (Vaucresson Sausage), Marcus Jacobs (Marjie’s Grill), Alfredo Nogueira (Cane & Table), Anh Luu (Xanh NOLA), and Sophina Uong (Mister Mao); tickets for the day-long event are $100." - Clair Lorell
