re: Chaurice sausage
Posted by NOLATiger71 on 4/2/25 at 10:06 pm
Vaucresson sausage in New Orleans at 1800 St Bernard Ave. New Orleans, makes a great chaurice sausage. Been making creole sausage for over 100 years. It is the last original Jazz Fest food vendor that started with Jazz Fest. The son rebuilt the Busiess after total destruction from Hurricane Katrina.

Does anyone use the larger style banjo burner with natural gas? I have been wondering if it works, would be easy to hook up to home gas line if it does. If so can please give results, Pros/ cons.

re: Nor-Joe Imports & Itlaian Deli Temporarily Closed - Moving to Veterans Blvd.
Posted by NOLATiger71 on 3/16/25 at 6:59 am
Here is what I found. Shortly after the Nor-Joe closing, a post on one of the business brokers sites said. A unique food business for sale for $2.5 million or looking for investors. Mentioned about looking to expand 2-3 locations in the metro area and have food items expanded into grocery stores to sell. The listing listed the square footage which when you look up Nor Joe site on Zillow, it was the exact same sq ft of space. The listing was listed also by the same guy who owned Nor-Joe’s. My guess, it’s gone at least for now.
re: Where the NFL Recommends Fans Eat in New Orleans
Posted by NOLATiger71 on 2/3/25 at 6:19 am
This list was comprised based on the NFL support of DEI. The entire LIX Super Bowl committee only used DEI while here in New Orleans. To be any sort of vendor to support this Super Bowl you had to qualify under the guides of DEI. So, this food list is made up of DEI parameters.
re: First Crawfish of the Season ...
Posted by NOLATiger71 on 1/19/25 at 10:00 am
There is only a “Crawfish Season” when it comes to living outside where they are farmed.
A couple of years ago, I at at Pat’s in Henderson. Server asked me what type of gumbo do I want with my meal and one of the options was crawfish. I asked, “are crawfish in season”? She looked at me and said, what do you mean? They are never out of season. So I said, okay then, I will have the crawfish gumbo.

Agree with your choices. There are a few others but, this is a very good overview. Always good to be in a local rum club!
re: New Crêpe Drive Thru in Metairie
Posted by NOLATiger71 on 1/15/25 at 6:28 am
You are correct, made the edit in original post. On a side note, I asked the owner how do you like being in a lighthouse serving crêpes? He said, we love it because back home in Brittany, they have light houses all over! I wish the owners the best..
New Crêpe Drive Thru in Metairie
Posted by NOLATiger71 on 1/14/25 at 2:31 pm
A few months ago Crêpe Rendez- Vous Cafe opened up in Metairie at 1712 Lake Ave., which is the old Light House Paccinio’s. Their focus is Crepes and Coffee. I got talking to the owner and learned that Crêpes started in Brittany France and this is where the owners are from.
I am posting because I see they are launching a new French version of the King Cake that looks good!

I would love to have the original Popeye’s biscuit recipe and the blueberry one they used to make back in the early days! Nothing like them today in my opinion.

I saw some online social media post they are moving. I don’t understand the big secret in where the new location will be on veterans. Several have asked but they are making it a surprise, for what purpose? Rent will be expensive which means end goods will be as well. Days are limited for them.

Our family’s favorite until the owner pulled his Covid BS! We have never stepped foot back into his restaurant again. Over it.

re: A Margarita made from the Original Recipe is a beautiful thing
Posted by NOLATiger71 on 3/15/24 at 6:43 am
Do you mean an original daiquiri? Then I like a mixture of a 2,1,1 mixture.
2 oz white rum (no Bacardi), quality
1 oz simple syrup
1 oz fresh squeezed lime juice
I have even gone up to 4:1:1 Rum.
