That episode nearly gave me a heart attack the time I saw it. He can make it and call it whatever he wants except gumbo because gumbo it is not.

Do those people you quoted live in Bama where gumbo is tomato based soup with no roux?

You forgot a few.

quote:

This is NOT creole gumbo. Let me explain first of all I am from south Louisiana and have had the opportunity to taste many award winning true gumbos. If you like tomato soup with okra and sausage then you might enjoy the gumbo shack. Their gumbo is made with a tomato base instead of the roux that in a creole or cajun gumbo. The gumbo shack does this for their red beans and rice also. This is the worst gumbo I have ever tasted. Will not be back.


quote:

Gumbo was not very good. We were really looking forward to it. Service was friendly but portions were small.

The Gumbo Shack was a big disappointment. The gumbo is not good and the service is very slow. Go somewhere else in Fairhope!

No idea where they live.

You think Guy knows what good food is?

And you forgot another.

I had the Naked Gumbo with shrimp and was supprised it was tomato based, not roux. I have had a lot of gumbo and this was as good or better than any I have had.
