New Orleans is a gastronome's dream city! Some culinary
favorites you ought to try while you're in town include:
• Amazing creole dishes like gumbo, jambalaya or etouffee.
Taste the seafood, smoked andouille sausage, okra and heat
the chefs serve up in these spicy stews that are meals unto
themselves.
• Sandwiches pale in comparison to the po'boy, its French
bread stuffed with roast beef or fried seafood and sauce, and
the muffuletta, its Italian-style deli meats slathered with olive
spread.
• To start the day or end the evening, fresh, hot beignets
buried in powdered sugar are unlike any donuts you've ever
tasted, especially alongside a cup of chicory-laced café au lait.
