What you can expect

Chefs are the new rock stars and this tour is a delicious journey through New Orleans and Louisiana’s rich culinary history! Down here we’re passionate about eating, so along with your guide, you will visit up to 5 locations: classic Creole restaurants, area sandwich shops, hot sauce bars, artisanal sweet shops, and more. Once inside you’ll sample different foods that represent the breadth and diversity of our culinary heritage: dishes like gumbo, muffulettas, poboys, pralines, and much more.

We cover New Orleans’ various restaurant family dynasties, we discuss recipes old and new, we view restaurants that pre-date the American Civil War, and we recommend places to eat and places to shop. With so many dining options in New Orleans, why not try 5 different places in one fell swoop!

The 3-hour walking tour is conducted at a leisurely pace and with small groups (up to 16). Some of the restaurant stops feature fully stocked bars if you’d like to enjoy a cold drink (adult or otherwise!) during the tour.
