What to Eat at New Orleans’s Oak Street Po-Boy Fest - Eater New Orleans

"This weekend is the 16th Oak Street Po-Boy Festival, a one-day event that attracts hoards of po’ boy lovers to eat and drink their way down a packed Carrollton neighborhood thoroughfare. It takes place Sunday, October 27 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. This year, more than 35 vendors are slinging their specialties, including brand new restaurants like Aguasanta with a birria po’ boy; novelty creations like a po’ boy ice cream sandwich from Bof Bars; and festival staples like the cochon de lait from Walker’s BBQ. As always, expect major crowds and long lines of po’ boy patrons making their way down Oak Street. While admission to the festival is technically free, attendees must purchase a $10 wristband to buy food from vendors (a fast pass is available for $25)." - Clair Lorell
