Anyone with advice on hiring a private chef in New Orleans?

you need a full blown catering service, not just a chef

Check out chef Jeremy coco, he is out of BR but does this kind of thing, if he ain’t booked, I am sure he could make the trip to NO

I second Jeremy Coco

Make sure to tell him that he was found on tigerdroppings

My nephew is the younger sommelier. Emeril had actually taken him to New York pre-covid for a national sommelier convention where they do a dish/wine pairing competition. My nephew won by 54 points over the rest of the field. He's really talented.

Example: One time I was going into a store for a Coke and asked him if he wanted anything. He said, "Yeah get me a Dasani water...no, make that an Ozarka." I said incredulously, "There's no difference in bottled water." He said, "Yes, there is." So, I decided to do a blind taste test.

I bought 6 different waters (Ozarka, Dasani, Aquafina, Nestle, Evian, and Fiji) plus, tap water, and had another family member serve us, while we write down what we think each one is. I only got tap right (metallic taste & different temp from the others). My nephew got all 7 right! That's just insane.

TLDR: He's got talented taste buds which I didn't know was a thing until this taste test.

It’s incredibly affordable and a great time but you may be looking for something more high end. If you ever wanted a more relaxing event, I recommend them. I think they can go up to 30ish.
