This is idiotic. Food does not make a state. There is a large contingent of Louisiana people in Atlanta and they bring the cooking with them. I am even going to get crawfish tonight. To say any state is better because of food is just idiotic.

You can say you have fresher seafood (Atlanta also is a big enough hub that seafood here is shipped in same day) but there is nothing that keeps food contained in a state line. I even had great creole in Hermosa Beach Cali.

Yes, there are Louisiana transplants in several states that own Louisiana restaurants. Guess what? The food in other states is seasoned to the taste of the local residents.

I've lost count of the times someone has taken me out to a Louisiana restaurant in their city, only for me to be disappointed in the taste of the food. The locals invariably can't handle spices like people who grew up in Louisiana.

Simply put...you eat as you live. And Louisiana food outside of Louisiana, just isn't the real thing.

Yep, right down the road from me within walking distance here in Huntsville.





Also, if anyone is in Huntsville and has $75 per person to throw down, check out Cotton Row.
