New Orleans' Soul Food

You've probably heard by now that the food here is exquisite. It is quite possibly the best food of any region on the Continent. Not only are there many Cajun and Creole dishes unique to this region, but here, mouth-watering soul food is the staple. People here don't wait for traditional holidays to eat things like mustard greens, cornbread stuffing, candied yams, gumbo, etc. New Orleanians eat like this everyday. Hence, one of the fattest cities in America.

I've had the good fortune to work near some great soul food and creole restaurants. On any given day I have a selection of: red beans and rice, smothered pork chops, stuffed chicken breasts, homemade made man n'cheese, jambalaya, gumbo, and all the seafood you could ever want. Shrimp, oysters, blue crabs, crawfish, and did I mention shrimp. I've never seen shrimp in so many dishes.

Best of all right, around the corner from the office there is a Daquiri shop; Yes, there are establishments that sell only Daquiris; Most impressive, some of them even have drive-thrus!?!. Insane- Only in New Orleans.
