Culinary Escape to The Big Easy

Cajun cuisine originates from the French-speaking Acadian or "Cajun" immigrants deported by the British from Acadia in Canada to the Acadiana region of Louisiana. Creole is a style of cooking that actually originated in Louisiana that blends French, Caribbean, Mediterranean, Spanish and African influences. If you love foods with a "kick", and Southern Louisiana fare in general, you will love this culinary getaway. You will peer into the dishes made famous by the celebrity chefs of New Orleans. You will learn how to add your own Cajun twist to every day meals, and taste the flavors that have made this region synonymous with haute (and hot) cuisine.
