"This economical tradition is the ultimate Louisiana comfort food, made with slow-cooked red beans and spiked with ham hock and spicy sausage. During Monday lunch, try Cafe Reconcile’s hearty red beans and smoked sausage for $10, or add grilled or fried catfish and chicken. The dish from this important New Orleans institution is made with lots of love. Other good spots for this one include Frady’s, Joey K’s, Lil’ Dizzy’s, and Willie Mae’s." - Eater Staff
