Where to Find the Best Gumbo in New Orleans

"It’s good to remember that Donald Link earned his James Beard Award for Best Chef South at Herbsaint back in 2007. The lovely St. Charles Avenue restaurant is his flagship, and the gumbo recipe is all Link, a changing take on the traditional that is now his chicken, tasso, and andouille version of the dish. That andouille is so good — it’s made at Cochon Butcher and available for sale in the butcher case. A similarly delicious version of the gumbo is also available at Cochon, next door to Butcher, another Link staple." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell, Eater Staff
