Lousisana "soul" food?


This is gonna be bad

ETA: gumbo looking thin as hell.
"Gumbo is a soup"

"Gumbo has been around about 75 years."

Jambalaya too much rice and yellow.

Chicken looks good, pork chop with dressing on top looks hood,
Yams and fried shrimp and fish standard fare.


They could have gone to much better places

I’m glad they enjoyed it but that gumbo looked weak. No viscosity to it at all like they skipped the roux altogether.

We've watched a bunch of their videos, they're entertaining. All the food in this one looks amazing.

If you’ve ever had British food you wouldn’t worry about them having a low quality gumbo, compared to their usual fare truck stop gumbo is a delicacy.

Most of it looked weak, where was the meat in the jambalaya?

Trust me, I’ve had my share of mushy peas. When over there I’ll get the occasional fish and chips but I mostly just eat Indian food. (Manchester is a haven for Indian restaurants!)

Go watch their videos when they go to Georgia to eat southern food. Hilarious

Next time they should go to Ville Platte & try the ponce.

When you grow up in a country where one of the better meals is breakfast you will enjoy the food in almost any other country.

They’re definitely a YouTube rabbit hole. Really entertaining. One of my favorite videos is where they get British high school students to try biscuits and gravy.

I can only imagine their Brit palate overloading.

That was pretty entertaining. Gumbo could have been a lil thicker and the jamabalaya could have had more protein. That pork chop looked great, I'm going to have to try that.

Come all this way and get creole instead of real cajun.

I’ve never understood the baked beans for breakfast thing in England. I like baked beans but as a breakfast food makes no sense.

Other parts of Louisiana than New Orleans have better individual dishes than those at that restaruant. The gumbo soup and box jambalaya looked nasty

The Jambalaya looked gross. Like something out of a box.

They were very confused when an American with a mild southern accent kept asking for recommendations on the best Indian restaurants.
