Recenzii

This is a superb historical look at Tujague's, as well as being a great NOLA style cookbook! A few years ago it seemed like Tjague's was being sold to outside interests who were going to shut it down, after over 150 years in buisness (established in 1857). The public outcry was HUGE. NOLA loves it's traditions, and there are a handful of restaurants that are as cherished as the family silver saved from those "*&* Yankes" in the Civil War. The thought of lossing Tujague's sent many into fits. Luckily the owner decided to sell to his nephew, the current owner, and keep Tujague's alive and breathing. New owner Mark Latter accepted the history and ghosts (yes, there are multiple ones in the building), and decided to make some minor changes, like lightening up the dining room, to modernize the restaurant and a little bit of the menu. Yet he has kept what makes Tujague's unique. This book, from one of our favorite authors [...] showcases all that is wonderful, unique and amazing from Tujague's. All the classics you know and love from the menu, like Eggs Sardou, Oysters a la Governor Noe, Seared Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes (my fav), Crawfish Bisque a la Begue (my second fav), Miss Brenda's Red Beans and Rice, Crawfish Florentine, and Creole Seafood Courtbuillion, are combined with unique anecdotes and the history of the restaurant and owners. It is both an amazing cookbook, showcasing NOLA's French traditions combined with Creole cooking, and a great memoir of New Orleans history and traditions. It is NOT to be missed! -- Nicole Henke, 6 Jan, 2016
