@Rick HOlbert makes a bloody good smoke sausage and chicken gumbo that will have you licking the pot. Sources his sausage from up Eunice way I think.

When we went to Nor 'Lens we came across the lake Ponceatrain bridge. Man what a drive.
One thing I can say is Nor 'Lens left me underwhelmed, just didn't impress me.
We went to cafe du monde after it came highly recommended by another member as a must do.
Sickly sweet and the coffee was disgusting. Probably an acquired taste.

My wife and I outside said cafe.

Yes the coffee is an acquired taste, it's coffee and chicory which can be polarizing if you not used to it. I grew up on the stuff so Im used to it but rarely drink it anymore, there is better coffee out there. I understand being underwhelmed, I am 20 minutes from the French Quarter and try to stay out of there as much as possible.

New Orleans is a wonderful city and at the same time, it’s a shit hole. An outsider can really benefit from a knowledgeable host with similar interests. It’s really a “state of mind” kinda place, and you gotta be feeling it.
