In New Orleans our uber driver told us we had to go to this restaurant call Dunbar’s famous creole cuisine which was out of the tourist area and where the locals went to eat. He told us to try the seafood gumbo. i was a little sceptical because it had okra in it and i’ve had a horrible experience with it when i was younger but the whole point of the trip was to try new foods and experience new culture . white rice was at the bottom and in the broth it had shrimp, oysters, crab legs, crab meat , clams, sausage, veggies and okra. I thought the okra would give it a slimmy texture but it just thicken the broth and the all the Cajun spices made it that much better. I kind of wished the bowl was bigger.
I’m envious. New Orleans is one place that I still haven’t gone and I know I’m missing something.
