We Tried Louisiana’s Best Foods! (First time eating Alligator)

[@LostRenegades]

Your crazy!! Bignet are so darn good!!!

[@Meghanandmatt]

Matt’s a hard critic! I️ loved them!!

[@judaychop]

“I don’t know if its the right place to get them”, its THE place to get them, they’re well known for the best ones, the humid air has an affect on the dough.

[@edenbordelon315]

Louisiana roads are the worst. If you think it's a drunk driver in front of you. It's probably just someone dodging potholes. 😆 I am born and raised in Louisiana trust me I know! Lol

[@Meghanandmatt]

Haha to this day they are still the worst roads we’ve been on!

[@darian.explores]

Awe hoping to take our van to NOLA in a couple weeks. Enjoy guys.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Safe travels! Have fun!!

[@danielleandgunnar]

the sasssy mornings hit a little different!

[@Meghanandmatt]

Oh so different lol! That’s what we get for delaying the caffeine!

[@ThatOneLazyNerd]

Notification Gang. Yall are on the "Leave whatever else im watching" list. Lmao. Only time i dont click right in is if im working. Got my camera in too. Hella hype for it.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Hey!!! Yes!! We made it!! Hope you love the camera! We got another but still obsessed with the canon m50.

[@abeandmel]

Haven't been there, thanks for the overview! Abe would love to try some Alligator! we have had alligator sausage before, I didn't care for it too much but Abe loved it! -Mel

[@Meghanandmatt]

I’d love to try some alligator steaks or something next!

[@kyleandmiranda]

"Not when it counts, heh" - LOL amazing. I need to make sure Kyle sees the seafood recs for next time we're in NOLA, he's suuuuch a seafood lover! Fun vlog, guys!

[@Meghanandmatt]

Hahaha! Omg wish we would have eaten more!!

[@TheTravelingChefs]

Looks like a blast!! Awesome vid as usual 👍🏽

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks y’all! Appreciate you!

[@OffbeatLiteracy]

Another great video! Love the content! Matt you're one lucky guy, you guys seem so fun!

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks! I definitely am a lucky guy 🤙🏼

[@naturalbeauty1312]

Food is so good, the Jazz and some much culture. Have fun !

[@Meghanandmatt]

Loved the street jazz! We totally messed up but going on a holiday on a Monday morning! 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@sammieperry1896]

Come on down to Vermont. You guys will love the 5 foot deep pot holes here. Lol.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Hahahaha I️ don’t doubt that!

[@sammieperry1896]

We are actually in the middle of converting a 14 foot vintage camper into a tiny home and traveling the US! I have talked to Jenn a little bit “lost renegades” and got a bit of feed back. We hope to see you all on the road soon! The only thing we are concerned about is the making money concept but we will be starting our own KZbin channel! Btw congrats on recently quitting your job and finding your freedom 😊

[@fabient2778]

Meghan, you are hilarious! must have enjoyed a few of those drinks on Burbon... so funny! Nice video guys.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks for watching Fabien!

[@BartBourg]

Yeah, New Orleans roads are terrible. Last time, about 8 months ago, I had to drive my rig & trailer through the French Market. Nightmare 😫

[@Meghanandmatt]

Omg so horrible I️ can only imagine!!!

[@TonyMedinaVlogs]

that food look sooo good , i need a trip down there or maybe I'm just hungry lol

[@Meghanandmatt]

It was soooo good still thinking about it and I’m also hungry lol

[@hannamatt8267]

Crawfish boil is definitely on our bucket list! We will have to check out Sammy's when we are in Louisiana. Food reviews are so fun! We had a blast shooting one for "Hot Chicken Takeover" in Columbus. Would 10/10 recommend if you end up in Ohio 😛

[@Meghanandmatt]

Ooo yeah that sounds good! We’re basically eating our way across the country haha

[@TrevXD]

There are certain restaurants that do it right, but there's nothing like an authentic home brewed crawfish boil. You get the good food along with with the good times, and good music, and good beer. If you have friends in Cajun country, definitely hit them up for a crawfish boil.

[@MetalMann-de3xi]

Finding bland food in Louisiana? Congratulations on finding all the tourist traps.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks! We had a great time while we were there

[@lindasteinbrenner8065]

New Orleans is fun! The music and food in the French Quarter ❤️ But at night you do have to contend with lots of drunk folks. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@Meghanandmatt]

That’s what we heard! We got out of there before dark

[@lilykep]

A lot of places do beignets, my favorite time/place to eat them is late after a night of drinking.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Oh that sounds good!

[@Christina0623]

We have what we call fried zeppolis, on the jersey shore, very similar to the beignet..theyre so yummy 😋

[@Meghanandmatt]

Mmm sounds like it!!

[@calliekayxoxo]

My hometown!! Yes you did go to the right place for beignets! And it was funny to hear you guys pronunciation on a lot of the words! 😂 thanks for the laugh per usual!!!! Now I’m craving crawfish!! Can’t get it here in Colorado 🥲

[@Meghanandmatt]

Omg we really don’t know how to say it!! No problem happy to make you laugh!! Also crawfish…. Highlight of the trip!

[@charlesh6329]

One of many places I need to see and experience but I'm glad you two made it. Another great video. And yes, I did get your joke Meghan ha ha.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Hahaha I️ just wanted to be very clear. Us too! We have to go back when it’s more lively

[@fessapooza]

The really good New Orleans food can be found in our kitchens, not in those fancy restaurants in the Quarter. Also, the little hole in the wall greasy spoon restaurants have good food as well. I was raised on coffee and chickery, but I prefer Dunkin' Donut Coffee or folgers LOL Many people here love community coffee. You should have ridden the street car down to a bar called Cooter Browns. You would have had more fun there and gotten better food for cheap. Plus, they have like 200 different types of beer from all over the world.

[@travelingwhilebutch]

There are so many amazing food places outside the French Quarter that are way better.....the Irish Channel had some amazing food.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Wish we had more time to go outside of French quarter. Next time!

[@travelingwhilebutch]

@@Meghanandmatt Yes, there is always next time!!! The best part about a life of freedom. :)

[@Meghanandmatt]

@@travelingwhilebutch couldn’t agree more!!

[@saxmusicmail]

Pronounced, "Ben-yay". Yes, some call them French Market Donuts. OK, follow me here. Hold it up in front of your mouth, aim at your partner across the table, and blow powdered sugar all over him. Then laugh! This is a tradition.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Haha I️ HAVE to try that next time!

[@saxmusicmail]

@@Meghanandmatt And thus the joke, "Wear a white shirt."

[@to0muchlove]

YOU’RE NOT NICE!!

[@Meghanandmatt]

YOU ARE NOT NICE

[@mattbouthet]

YOURE NOT NICE

[@Accessible.adventures]

Gator is usually served fried like this and it truly doesn’t have a lot of flavor, kind of like chewey chicken. Redfish is delicious if done right that’s all Tj used to catch in FL.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Mmm yeah that redfish was good it could have just used a little bit more flavor from something

[@Accessible.adventures]

@@Meghanandmatt we love it blackened!

[@Meghanandmatt]

@@Accessible.adventures that’s how we had it! So good

[@shoneythomas9215]

They went to tourist go to the heart of New Orleans and not paying those outrageous prices uptown has spots and downtown that’s where the of New Orleans is we the gumbo French quarters watered down

[@Meghanandmatt]

Unfortunately, we only had a few days there but we plan on going back!

[@shoneythomas9215]

@@Meghanandmatt be blessed in y’all journey when y’all come back go to marrows

[@erykvonritzmann4741]

French quarter food is kinda bogus unless it's high dollar. Real food is outside the quarter.

[@ld2783]

Joke 👌🏾😜

[@Meghanandmatt]

Hah! Ty ty

[@Nevario1]

The way it's pronounced is Ben-yay, not Ben-nay.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Potato potatoe, benyay bennay

[@Evanmross4488]

Lol....big nays???

[@Evanmross4488]

Pronounced ben yays

[@leslieguild]

gheez, learn how to prnounce what you are eating

[@Meghanandmatt]

Geez learn how to spell if you’re going to be critical of how we speak
