Hidden Gems for Cajun, Creole, Soul Food in New Orleans

[@myholyking6951]

I really enjoyed this video Matt!! THE Band was Awesome Man!! The Turkey necks and the shrimp looking good even if you dropped them on the ground I'm pretty sure you would've wiped them off and kept on eating. I see that New Orleans is nothing but a good Ole time it's live!! If you stay there for a week you probably gain 30pds peace Matt ✌🏽

[@MattDV]

My Holy King. THANK YOU.

[@mm37too]

If you drop food on the street in New Orleans then pick it up and eat it, there will be consequences..

[@MattDV]

@@mm37too lol

[@mm37too]

@@MattDV i could be wrong. Maybe more specifically the French Quarter/Bourbon Street area.

[@JDaniels281]

You passed some of the best authentic cajun and creole dishes when you left Lafayette and surrounding areas.

[@MattDV]

Thats what I'm hearing. I shall return. Thanks J.

[@ej2010]

If you're in Lafayette between 10am and 2pm when you return, make sure to stop by Laura's 2 Soulfood off University Avenue. Great Cajun creole food there.

[@kristilouque8412]

Native Cajun here. Thank you so much for getting off the beaten path and finding some real food in New Orleans. I get so tired of watching reactions to the commercial crap. 😍🐷

[@MattDV]

Thank you Kristilouque.

All over south Louisiana there are good restaurants and great cooks. Not just Nola, all due respect to that city

[@ChandoisGainesjr-fn9vr]

Matt don't do me like that! That food looks hella good! Send yo boy a plate! 😂😂 Always wanted to go to new Orleans! Shout out 2 my Creole brothers n sisters out there! NOR CAL CREOLE 🌉⚜️✊🏿

Goodafternoon Matt and Chat😮another great Vlog, Safe travels. Enjoyed it...

[@MattDV]

Good Afternoon NYE. 🙂

[@Roni504jwill]

You in the 7th ward OG. I grew up a few blocks away and Triangle has been there for years. The stuffed bell peppers are good and the blue store across the street has some good seafood. Enjoy the city OG

[@MattDV]

Hey Roni, thank you.

[@Fridays17]

New Orleans is the Caribbean of North America! good food good music, nice people . Yeah, definitely gonna eat good there’s no farm raised seafood in Louisiana. You’re surrounded by water which is the food in the water. You passed right by a good Creole restaurant and the seventh ward on Roman and Saint Bernard Vaucresson’s hot sausage some of the best Poboy you’ll ever eat right where you hollered out Danny’s seafood it’s right next-door. Right on the corner check it out. Have a good time in Nola, be aware and be careful😊

[@MattDV]

Thanks Fridays.

[@mpr8356]

Did you stop through Lake Charles???

[@mishawilliams4319]

I am catching up, i enjoy the creole food, i liked the band playing,now thats a container full of food,🤗

[@MattDV]

Yes, You just reminded me that I have some short-form video to post from New Orleans.

[@eswillie]

Glad ya got outa the touristy section, 'specially Bourbon Street. I know where I wanna go if I ever do get ta N'oleans. All that food looked damn good, and I never had turkey necks or sucked the head of shrimp, but I will now. And, since ya didn't say it, if nobody told ya today that they love ya, you hangin' with the wrong people. Thanks again, Matt. Made my night a whole lot better.

[@finemissime]

I went to the chicharones place in el paso texas that you went to. I don't believe I have been here since 2010 and didn't know about it. I bought some Thursday, my sister, myself and my daughter who was stationed here in the army loved it. The owner was nice he remembered you from your video, he was sooo happy and greatful. I was the one who sent you a comment saying you could stay with me when you were here. I'm from the bronx new york, you know how we do, we take care of eachother. Anytime you come this way you and your guess can stay here . I have alot of room. No strings attached . I would love the company. I want you to feel feel comfortable . The room I will give you has a bathroom and I won't bother you.

[@michaeldugas1994]

Next time you come to the city you gotta hit a spot on the westbank called Chickens Kitchen. 629 Derbigny St. Gretna Louisiana.!!!

[@MattDV]

What Up Matt!? 👋🏾 Catching up on episodes today. Those candied yams and mac and cheese look good. The turkey necks looked a little tough but very flavorful with the gravy. Wow that convenience store has lots of soulful dishes. We just made pigs feet last night I've never seen them in stores or restaurants before. The seafood looks so good 😋 Thanks for taking us along. Peace ✌🏾 family. ~JT
