Gumbo Tales: Finding My Place at the New Orleans Table

Sara Roahen

4.9/5 (9443 ratings)

Description:Celebrating New Orleansâ€™ food culture, one specialty at a time. A cocktail is more than a segue to dinner when itâ€™s a Sazerac, an anise-laced drink of rye whiskey and bitters indigenous to New Orleans. For Wisconsin native Sara Roahen, a Sazerac is also a fine accompaniment to raw oysters, a looking glass into the cocktail culture of her own familyâ€”and one more way to gain a foothold in her beloved adopted city. Roahenâ€™s stories of personal discovery introduce readers to New Orleansâ€™ well-known signaturesâ€”gumbo, po-boys, red beans and riceâ€”and its lesser-known gems: the pho of its Vietnamese immigrants, the braciolone of its Sicilians, and the ya-ka-mein of its street culture. By eating and cooking her way through a place as unique and unexpected as its infamous turducken, Roahen finds a home. And then Katrina. With humor, poignancy, and hope, she conjures up a city that reveled in its food traditions before the stormâ€”and in many ways has been saved by them since.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
