Tired of French and Italian lately? Recently discovered this interesting fusion spot in Pasadena — Southern Creole/Cajun cuisine from New Orleans. 🍤✨ Each main dish comes with a recommended wine pairing. The Shrimp & Grits were amazing — shrimp grilled to a charred aroma paired with corn-flavored grits — so tasty! The Catfish, however, wasn’t for me — a bit too fishy 🐟😅. Dessert was a happy ending with fried apple pie and cinnamon ice cream 🍎🍨. The decor has a mystical tarot-meets-underground retro vibe, and the music playlist is on point — loved every track! Perfect for sipping and chilling all night 🎶🍷. The owner clearly runs this place with passion (and a flexible schedule 😆) — they’re only open Fridays and Saturdays from 5–9 PM. Definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu! #LosAngeles #WhatToEatToday #PasadenaEats #CreoleFood #FusionCuisine #HiddenGem
