Six stops build the Creole canon in the right order: a dark-roux gumbo, yakamein from a counter that has fed night-shift workers for decades, a shrimp po'boy dressed correctly, and pralines made in front of you. The guide is clear about what is Creole, what is Cajun, and why the distinction matters to people here. Portions are cumulative and defeat almost everyone — skip breakfast — and the walk runs rain or shine, which in New Orleans sometimes means genuinely soggy.
