The Best Crawfish Boil in New Orleans
"The Creole‑style entrant, led by founder Larry G. Thompson, Jr., emphasized that “You have to have that flavor inside the seafood; it cannot be on top.” Having grown up attending seafood boils, the team translated those traditions into an acclaimed restaurant concept that prizes authentic, internalized seasoning. In the live cook‑off at Woldenberg Park the Creole boil took home the trophy and a $10,000 cash prize, with judge and Food Network Star winner Damaris Lennon Phillips declaring the flavor so irresistible she was “licking it off her fingers” — a flavorful reminder to open that wet wipe packet before digging in." - Ashley Day
