People go on and on about barbecue and how it's the best thing to come out of the South, but I have to disagree. Nothing beats a good gumbo or jambalaya or étouffée. What else comes close to the delight and taste of a well-made roux?



I mean, just look at this. This is what flavor looks like. I challenge you to name any better Southern cuisine than this.

Hi, I've come to apply for the doctor's job. I can assure you my credentials are top-notch, I've just graduated from Harvard College Yale. I aced every semester, and I got an 'A'.
I agree, I'd like to visit that part of America at some point and sample these delicacies that you have mentioned. Additionally, cornbread

it is a shame there is no good shack style restaurant for the classic rice dishes, like gumbo, etouffee, et al so unless you're making it yourself odds are you're in an over priced $30 but tasty plate restaurant or an overpriced $20 but mediocre restaurant

there's a ton of them for po boys but...heck it gets old man

Cajun is also great because it's basically designed for hot sauce, unlike most other American cuisine.

If it doesn't give you stomach ulcers and make you grab a pitcher of water, it's not hot enough imo.

I was a busser at a blues club that serves cajun food and these two fat guys were there drinking pitcher after pitcher of beer for like 5 hours. One of them had an etoufee and I went to his table thinking he was probably finished with it since a few minutes ago his bowl was almost empty. But when I went to the table, his bowl was full, which confused me. It took me a moment before I realized what had happened. It really does look the same before and after. Dude was just chilling there in his seat like everything was fine, too.

I still like etoufee though.

I keep meaning to catch more places to see in NOLA when I'm out there, other than stumble about drunk like an idiot.

Cajun food is good food, and that's being said by a Texas. But then, east Texas is basically swamp land so we get to take part in it too.

The strictest defining element is it needs to have gravy, cayenne pepper, onions, peppers, and celery. You can and should add any protein you'd like to the mix, like nutria. Please eat the nutria, because I don't want to eat the nutria.

I alone can see through the media bias.

I'm also stupid on a scale that can only be measured in Reddits.
Gotta agree. Nothing tastes better than jambalaya and nothing smells better than broiling crawfish.

I was once in NO with a friend who had never had broiled crawfish. One of the missions of the trip was to get her some. We were wandering around by frenchman street when we passed by a place with a broiler set up between a mesh window and a fan pointing out toward the sidewalk. I watched her pass by then pivot and return to press her nose against the mesh screen like bugs bunny getting picked up by an odor-hand. That was the place we ended up getting it at. Unfair and predatory advertising technique.

Later, everyone bitched when Katrina brought refugees here to San Antonio. And I cheered cuz before that the only cajun food in town was loving papadeaux and I wanted an honest to god cajun and or creole shack. Within a year there were several decent ones. Thanks katrina!

Anyway, mofuckin cajun food: its good. I gare-on-tee! Hoo!

It's alright, everything tastes the same though.



They pour a can of this on everything. If you dab a little on your tongue you've pretty much eaten every cajun dish there is.
