Emeril Lagasse Has a New Restaurant in New Orleans — and It's a Career-first for the Iconic Chef
"Emeril Lagasse opened his newest concept restaurant in New Orleans: 34 Restaurant & Bar, a tribute to his Portuguese heritage and his family's roots. The restaurant's menu features Portuguese-inspired dishes such as bacalhau a bras, caldo verde, and arroz de pato. It also includes a jamon bar and various desserts like Azorean pineapple fosters and pasteis de nata. The restaurant, designed with Portuguese tiles and wood accents, aims to celebrate European influences in New Orleans. It is a family venture with Lagasse's son, E.J. Lagasse, involved in its operation." - Rachel Chang Rachel Chang Rachel Chang is a travel and pop culture journalist who contributes to Travel + Leisure, Condé Nast Traveler, Lonely Planet, and more.
