🦃🇺🇸 My Unforgettable New Orleans Thanksgiving Food Diary!

New Orleans isn’t just a city — it’s a flavor paradise! From smoky BBQ to briny oysters and spiced cocktails, every bite tells a story. Here’s my deliciously incomplete NOLA food journey: 🔥 BBQ Oysters – My Absolute Fav! Char-grilled to perfection, dripping with garlic butter and Creole seasoning… Each one is a juicy, savory bite of heaven. I still dream about them! 🦪🧄 🍤 Crawfish Étouffée Rich, roux-based stew loaded with tender crawfish — served over fluffy rice. Soul food at its finest! 🥪 Muffuletta at Central Grocery A legendary sandwich stacked with Italian meats, cheese, and that signature olive salad — so big, it’s perfect for sharing! 🍩 Beignets at Café du Monde Pillowy, hot, buried in powdered sugar — paired with chicory coffee ☕️. A sweet must-do, any time of day. 🍹 Sazerac & Hurricanes Tried the original Sazerac (strong and spirit-forward!) and the fruity, deceptively strong Hurricane 🍒 — because in NOLA, even the drinks have history. From street food to fine dining, this city knows how to celebrate — on Thanksgiving and every day. Can’t wait to return and eat my way through more menus! 😋🎉 #NewOrleansEats #NOLAFoodDiary #BBQOysters #ThanksgivingFeast #FoodieHeaven
