- NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA: Welcome to New Orleans, one of the most exciting cities in the United States and one of the most delicious. Today we’re going on an ultimate food tour of the old French Quarter of New Orleans. We’ll be eating a lot of delicious and legendary food, and I’m going to share everything with you in this video now.
Thanks to Derek Robinson, my brother in law for featuring in this video. He roasts amazing coffee: / dereksips
Here are the places we went:
Cafe Du Monde French Market (goo.gl/maps/CMpWpkiHZ6Htsjdf8) - Easily the most recognizable and iconic coffee shops in New Orleans, and probably the United States, Cafe Du Monde serves unique chicory coffee and beignet. Although seemingly always packed, it’s a great place to get your day started when you’re in the French Quarter.
Central Grocery and Deli (goo.gl/maps/rawmkK8vuhkqGKcNA) Price - $22.60 - Next up we walked down the road to Central Grocery and Deli, home of the original muffuletta, a gigantic round sandwich with a variety of meats and cheeses, but most importantly an olive salad. The olives are what totally set it apart.
Coop's Place (goo.gl/maps/5BBbNZSjKA9syZez7) - Price - $29 - Unfortunately Coop’s Place is only over 21, and they don’t allow filming inside. So we took our rabbit sausage jambalaya and étouffée to go. Both dishes were delicious, especially the jambalaya!
Verti Marte (goo.gl/maps/aXaWVqeiBxn2Nck3A) - All That Jazz Po' boy - $14.68 - Next up on this ultimate food tour in New Orleans, we stopped at Verti Marte for a giant Po’boy that included just about everything you could possibly imagine. It was a heavy sandwich but totally worth it.
Galatoire's (goo.gl/maps/nL31RS5kNsYKxnzX6) - Price - $40 - $60 per person - Next up for dinner, I made a reservation at Galatoire's, known to be one of the best restaurants in New Orleans. Although they didn’t invent Oysters Rockefeller, they make a great version of them, and for me that was one of the highlights. Also, don’t miss the flaming coffee to finish your meal!
Brennan's (g.page/BrennansNewOrleans?share) - Price - $22.04 - Finally completely unplanned, because we were right around the corner, we headed to Brennan's where they invented Bananas Foster! As Derek said, the best bananas foster he’s ever had.
And that wraps up this ultimate food tour in the New Orleans French Quarter. It was an amazing day exploring Creole and Cajun cuisine and culture in New Orleans!

I lived in New Orleans pre-Katrina for 5 years. I love that city so much so, I met my wife there, the hospitals trained me, the cuisine heightened me, and the art/music cultured me. We couldn’t get enough of that city, even after relocating to another state, we continued to visit and ultimately bought properties in the French Quarter. We visit monthly and relax for a weekend a month. That said, watching Mark placed me back into the vibe and his experiences and reactions are spot on in terms of incredibility. The places he visited are the places I frequent. His content is spot on. Yet, as a semi-native, allow me to make some additional recommendations. None of what I list is solicited. I just want to add the info here for whom is interested in having the best of the best, in my humble opinion:
Napoleon House: Muffuletta (toasted)
Acme: Grilled Oysters / Fried Catfish / BooFries
Doris Metropolitan: Classified cut / Bonaparte Dessert
Verti Mart: Jambalaya / Breakfast PoBoy / Biscuit
Palace Cafe: Bananas Foster
GW Fins: Fish Wings, Grouper
Mr. B’s: Barbecue Shrimp
Mothers: Fried Shrimp, Gumbo, Potato Salad
Fat Boy: Pizza
Port of Call: Cheese Burger
Tableau: Shrimp & Grits
Toast: Fried Chicken Biscuit
Lil Dizzy’s Cafe: Fried Chicken
Willie Mae’s Scotch House: Fried Chicken
Drago’s: Grilled Oysters
August: Everything (get your gallbladder removed first)
Carousel Bar: Drinks and Jazz
Preservation Hall: Jazz (no AC)
Oceania: Seafood Omelet
Great list thank you
Thank you for this awesome list! My family and I are planning a trip to New Orleans for Christmas, 2022. Can you recommend any restaurants for Christmas Eve dinner and Christmas Day either brunch, lunch or dinner?
Love acme
This was right on time. I'll be visiting soon!
so many come for school or work and end up staying
Cool Video. I am a Louisiana historian, whose family has been in Louisiana for over 300 years. *In regards to Creole vs Cajun food. All of our Louisiana food is truly Creole in that it is from a fusion of the inhabitants. None of the dishes known as Cajun (Coming from the word Acadian.) are found in Acadia---Cajun food is a branding tool often meant to refer to Country Creole Cooking. So, that would be non "city" food. So food found in Lafayette, Opelousas and beyond. It's all CREOLE. Using African, Native, and European influences.
Thank you so much for sharing this information Jeremy!
Thank you for the info!
so basically you haven't tried it all yet so come on down to Lafayette!
Thanks for the information 👍
Do you guys still speak French in Louisiana like in Quebec, Canada or you guys have forgotten ?
As a native of New Orleans it warms my heart seeing people enjoy what New Orleans has to offer.
Hi! Would the last week of may/first week of June be a good time to visit New Orleans?
We love your city!! I went for my second time in Nov and I can't wait to go back!
@@jessicam522 yes, that's a good time. It will just start getting hot, but not the unbearable heat like July and August. The end of April and early May is the height of the Festival season. But there is a Food and Wine Festival in early June.
@@nc8358 thank you! I appreciate your response 🙏🏽
But without this little gluttonous Pr...K
Your video just happened to pop up on my feed. I was born in New Orleans and raised here. Grew up in Chalmette (St. Bernard Parish) right outside New Orleans. Now I live in Mandeville across Lake Pontchartrain, but I still work in the city. I love how you captured the essence of our city and your enthusiasm is just contagious. New Orleans has a way of intoxicating your soul. No other place like it on the planet. We all get along here. We are like the gumbo that we are famous for. I still don’t know how Seattle beat us out on the best food in the USA. Go figure? Don’t know who took that poll 😂! The French Quarter has some amazing restaurants, but our surrounding areas have some great ones as well. St. Bernard Parish, Metairie (Jefferson Parish), Mandeville and Covington (St. Tammany Parish) and just the southern area of Louisiana and to the west. You need to try some boiled crawfish 🦞 if you haven’t already, and some boiled crabs. No one does seafood like we do it here. So thank you for this wonderful video and for making me hungry. I’m about to go eat some chicken and sausage gumbo. New Orleans is an awesome, historic, amazing place. If only we could get a hold on the crime, it would be perfect. Thanks again!
Mark, your brother-in-law Derek is great! Love the collaboration between the both of you. He's very descriptive of his food.
ua-cam.com/video/dx9gQRCT_kM/v-deo.html
Your brother in law is such a great incorporation to your videos. His commentary is on point and most of all his love for food as well.
Yep, all this good food is what made my husband move here. Asked him in 2016 when we were 51 and 62 if he wanted to take a chance on life and he agreed. So here we are. Love it in Nola!
Where this guy puts all of that food is a mystery to me lol. I love his jovial personality it’s contagious.
Totally agree
Tell me about it.... my average step count for last month was 17,000 steps per day at 2,000 calories a day. I lost in between 500grams to 1 kg. Honestly seeing him eat like this and stay this thin is mind boggling to me...... I need to be dropped off on a deserted island for me to lose any weight :(
@@courtneyhawkins4072 try fasting to loose weight.
I’ve tried for one day and gave up 🤣 I might give it a go again but you’ve got to be mentally strong to fast for long periods. In this area my mental toughness is pretty weak.
@@courtneyhawkins4072 There are people like him that can eat whatever and not gain. It boils down to your body type and genetics. He is a ectomorph which is a body type that is naturally slim but has trouble gaining weight/muscle. Mesomorphs are most common (in between) and endomorphs are people naturally on the bigger side. Finding healthy foods that you actually enjoy should be the main start to losing weight and finding a workout program that best suits you should be second. It's all about finding the balance, so you can eat yummy muffelatas as long as your main eating habits are healthy.
cheers.
38:00 She has such a bubbly personality. A raise she must get!
That’s our daughter! Thank you sir!
@@marqevox9745 you raised a humble and kind human being good job mate
She reminded me of a museum guide. She is very knowledgeable and has amazing plating flair! I agree with OP Roy, she’s a gem and needs to be compensated as such. I hope to make it there one day.
Crazy how Coop’s Place didn’t allow Mark to film! They obviously didn’t know they kicked out the most popular food reviewer in the world 😂. Love the food and history of New Orleans! Thanks for the tour Mark.
You should dress up as a shrimp and do a food review there 😂
Those fools!
Coops Place down bad for that lmao
They were trunp tards !
There may be a perfectly legitimate reason they said no to the cameras.
When Derek took a bite of the jambalaya his facial expression is exactly how I feel about every dish I have in New Orleans...mind blowing...I absolutely love New Orleans!!
Yea food there is amazing
I literally wrote almost the same comment without seeing yours😅 YES! ❤
“I’m starting to think the best food in Neworleans comes from grocery stores”. That would be absolutely correct Mark. We love our grocery store po boys, fried catfish, shrimp and grits and more.
You’re not wrong. We used to only have corner groceries and a few for every ward. Central Grocery is one of the few left. I would just assume bringing back the corner grocery and do away with the giant corporate groceries.
@@dylanturner3216 I buy most of my cooked food at Rouse's grocery,it's better than any restaurant in NOLA for 1/3rd the price...especially when Crawfish is in season...all cooked for $3.99/lb..$15.00 /lb on Bourbon st and not as good.
Bourbon is a Tourist Trap. Go off the beaten path. The local grocery stores and where the Service Industry eats, is "where" to go. Crawfish season is starting up! Best time of the year!
@@ashleyhay7682 Too cold for me right now,i am a Floridian and just had a cold spell..Do you still have covid restrictions,like wearing mas in restaurants?We are free here and will not put up with the plandemic.
It almost tastes like Captain Morgan😆😆😆😆😆😆
I had 2 bites of their muffelata. I still haunts me 5 years later. The single best sandwich of my life. Perfect for a road trip.
I have too agree totally . 🤠🖖
why only two bites?
Derek (sorry if I spelled it incorrectly) was such a joy to watch. I love the pictures he painted describing each dish…. So very well done!👍🏾
I’d sub to his channel if he did a good vlog. Real genuine person, love him.
What happened to him?
Lousiana is like another country, it’s definitely my favourite state to visit. The creole houses, the swamps, the history, it’s amazing
New Orleans is so under rated! The food is out of this world and it’s like eating in heaven! I love their hospitality and uniqueness! Planning to visit again soon!
Man Derek should do his own food channel too! He's so chill and loves his food for sure! Awesome video guys!
So chilled right 😃😃😃
Yeah, I went straight to the description to see if Mark had his channel posted, sadly there is none. Derek is no food expert, just a regular Joe like us but 3 times more chill, very likable.
Hook a brother in law up Mark!
Right ? Mark’s videos always makes us so hungry! Such a great channel! It’s nice to see him invite his friends on so often!
We have a new, up-and-coming, family food taste testing channel also. We try to offer vast opinions on the foods we try! If you have any free time please check us out 🙏 thanks again!
@@SunnyBee626 keep feeling all the good food you're making me want to get on a plane and flat and New Orleans tonight
Love that you brought your sister an her family into the food tour eating!!!
Family ❤️
When Mark describes New Orleans history and the difference in Cajun and Creole you could see the love in his face and in his voice. Awesome!!!
He described it beautifully! Creole baby over here!!💖
He is wrong. His explanation is erroneous and not true whatsoever. He needs to get his facts straight.
I just want to take the time to appreciate how Mark includes locations, price and details about the places he visits in the description.
It's so helpful to reference back to that instead of having to rewind the video! Thank you 🙌🏼👏🏼
OMG I’m a huge fan, and it’s crazy how I’m watching this video and I actually met him and his family in New Orleans, when he was creating this content!!! Being from Louisiana and eating the food is a vibe!!!!!💯🔥
Awesome! I would have fanned out for sure!
@@redherringbone 😂😂😂
The Dynamic Duo back together again! You guys are such a great team. Happy to see your families thriving. Stay safe.
Hey miss Ingrid!! We are a new channel and would love to know what you think of our latest Mukbang videos! We have been a huge fan of Mark forever 🙏
I am a native of New Orleans and thank you thank you for sharing our food and culture! I have been watching you for many years since your little one was born. He is growing so fast! I love the Wiens family!
Derek’s reaction when eating the etouffee and jambalaya is exactly how I felt about every single thing I tired in New Orleans!!! Ugh one of my favorite places 😍
Believe it or not... I was smiling throughout the whole video.
It reminds me on a business trip when I visited a conference in Atlanta. I told a friend of mine: "Hey, next week the jazz fest in New Orleans will begin. Let's take some extra days and go there." Then we approached Marlene, the head of our project office. "Can you arrange a hotel for the two of us ?" She called us crazy. Imagine we wanted a hotel room a few days before the jazz fest would start. About half a million people usually visit this event... But she made it. We've got a hotel right in the middle of the french quarter. And we had some soft shell crabs at K Pauls and several other creole and cajun dishes. I saw most of the places you took us to in this video. Thanks for this nice recalling video !!!
when am hungry and don't know what to eat always think : let me watch MARK WIENS ! you are legendary thanks so much for your work,,you inspired me to start a channel doing this too.. Watching from Namibia
Thank you so much Sonya!
That's would be awesome idea with focus on Africa. I'll subscribe.
My fav UA-cam video right now no lie ua-cam.com/video/kPznVA-yANk/v-deo.html -
Same here
@@MarkWiens How come u keep changing the thumbnail & title to this vid? Just curious.
I like it when you & your brother in-law are eating together! He gives off a laid back vibe. 😎 Everything you both ate looked so darn good. Thanks for sharing.
ua-cam.com/video/E9mwW_0OJIs/v-deo.html😀😃
Hey Mark, I grew up in NOLA and I gotta say you did a good job on this video. Captured the soul of the city and its food culture very well.
Ying's face is priceless when she tries the oyster Rockefeller. She tries to be so polite, but I can tell it is not her favorite. So funny!!!
Yeah. My sympathy for her. She must be missing home cooked Thai food by her mom.
@@MrNicolascampbell84 its kinda hard for southeast asian people to like foreign food at first bite, especially the western ones. I remember my french gf cooked me spaghetti, it was the most bland spaghetti ive ever tasted lol. Our tongue is so accostumed to strong and spicy flavour. 😂
She's not into food very much
@@michaelboshko8206 I agree. You know she’s with Mark in all his video but you rarely see her eat.
Also, it not that she’s doesn’t like food other than Asian food, the texture of oyster and taste of spinach is not everyone’s forte.
@@harukrentz435 One of the largest Vietnamese communities in the US is in Louisiana, so there are many Vietnamese restaurants there. Not the same thing as Thai, but definitely hits many of the flavor notes of Thai cuisine
I live in New Orleans and this is one of the reasons why it is hard for me to move😓😓 tried other states food and NOLA remains the best hands down 🥰❤️❤️
I have been going to New Orleans for 40 years and it just keeps getting better and better. Trust me every place Mark went is outstanding! There are better places for coffee (chicory) but the food in Orleans in next level.
It's crazy..I've been all over the world..and they're no place like new Orleans..food wise...
@@russellromo2164 100% facts
I am always amazed by not only the amount of food Mark can eat but he does it all with a huge assed smile on his face while doing it.
Could definitely be a competitive eater if he wanted 😂
Sometimes weed helps a lot….😉
Thank you , Mark for visiting my native land. Creole pride is strong and our food is a class of its own. Great showing of my beloved New Orleans.
Hi! Would the last week of may/first week of June be a good time to visit New Orleans?
@@jessicam522 yeah, just don't go in late July or August! Humidity will get ya!😁🤣
@@dixiecyrus8136 I know
😓.. you will barely survive * I live here & it is unbearable!💯
Derek is like the perfect bro in law that Mark could find lmao
Yup 🤣
Marks IN LAWS are FAR from worry about where they're next 💵 is coming from.
@@maundamartin59 ???
Thank you for explaining the differences between Creole and Cajun! Finally someone speaks up about it.
he did'nt explain it well tho.
@@danemon8423 he did the best he could, people I know born and raised in Louisiana can barely explain the difference
@@danemon8423 What wasn't well about it? I thought it was accurate.
Mighta been nice if he hadn’t said ‘Arcadian’ when he meant ‘Acadian’. (That sorta thing.) 🤷🏼♀️
When Mark had that po boy and food was dripping out, I screamed!! Lolz, I didn't want him to lose any of that sandwich! I also love the part where the two ladies I believe just said "oh no we're just standing here watching you enjoy that sandwich!"
Da shrimppppp
😂😂
Love that what Mark Wiens defines as meeting a dress code is to put on a plaid shirt and button literally just the top button.
🤣🤣🤣 with the open backpack 🎒
@@bboone48207 lmao the open backpack sent me . Mark is so pure it’s so cute .
Yeah it had me laughing out loud!
New Orleans is one of the best food cities in the world!
ABSOLUTELY!
Not shocking if you consider the mixture of cultures that's a recipe for many different varieties of good food every time.
I got into a huge argument with someone who had never been there telling me that this wasn’t the case. I love love love New Orleans🥰❤️
NOLA is such a unique and fun place in the US. Only been once but fell in love with it!
This my favorite episode hands down. I loved seeing Marks family. I have watched this severall times and it gives me a warm cozy feeling. Thank you!
The woman at the end making the banana dessert had the most loveliest smile. 10/10 for hospitality!
That's my city. NEW ORLEANS, one of the most beautiful places in the United States. The food is great 😋... so glad you was here Mark 😊
Y'all did a great job discovering some classic Creole dishes in iconic places. Your enthusiastic descriptions and love of my city is quite wonderful.
Really enjoy it when you bring your brother in law along. He's really genuine and down to Earth. I really wish to see him more in your food and travel videos. Please
The" All that jazz" is the absolute best sandwich in America. Brennan's bread pudding with rum raisin sauce is also phenomenal.
brennans bannanas foster is the best thing I ever ate and I dont like bananas
@@rowdybme4584 Brennan's bread pudding with rum raisin sauce is one of the best things I've ever ate and I'm not fond of raisins.
I like the Debris Po'Boy at Mother's.
I love how each year you make a trip to see family and incorporate your love of food then end it up with a country side visit to Ying's family still incorproating your love of food and her families cooking.
Bet he cant wait to visit India. Mark loves Indian food so much in fact India is his most visited country.
Right ? Mark’s videos always makes us so happy! Such a great channel!
We have a new, up-and-coming, family food taste testing channel also. We try to offer vast opinions on the foods we try! If you have any free time please check us out 🙏 thanks again!
Omg. My FRENCH Acadian family visited NEW ORLEANS and complained about all food being a green slime! LOL. Must have been the dang bus driver's fault because this food looked awesome!
The way Mark describes the food and is so happy to eat everything and so excited to share is wonderful. And that his family is with him and you can see them being themselves is awesome
It’s rare to see his family in his videos. I always wonder if they are eating at a different table while he is filming , or if they wait until he is finished. I sometimes hear a toddler’s or baby’s voice in background but he doesn’t break away and engage with them.
Going to Louisiana in a couple of days so of course I need to check the food scene. 🤣
I would like to say Mr. Wien is both amazing and humble at the same time. He deserves all the success he has. Thank you for being you.👏🏼🙏🏽
Mark… You’re definitely the star of the show and your brother-in-law was just as phenomenal… Thank you. I truly enjoyed this episode
Derek deserves his own food show! He was so good!
So my husband and I frequent New Orleans for concerts and day walks around the city and there were a few new choices you have added to our list of "have to tries". Thank you for introducing all the new cuisines on your shows. Perfect!!
My family is from NOLA and we grew up eating this kind of food. My mother was a cook at the world famous Dookie Chase restaurant. Ms Leah Chase was one of my favorite people.
Mark love how you always tell us some history about the places you go
Man… This is my favorite city to visit. The days are extremely long. You can step into any entrance and have a great time and meal. No itinerary is necessary. Horrendous rain comes out of nowhere, and doesn’t ruin anything….
Even a chill day sitting in the hotel is great. A must visit city.
Love that the children are in this video and get to experience such a historic place! ❤️
Jennifer and Andrew at Galatoires were so sweet and postive, love them - they were such good hearted ppl
I love it when you have your brother-in-law on! You both seem to enjoy the food so much. I can't wait to visit New Orleans one day!
Hey Christna! We are a new channel and would love to know what you think of our latest Mukbang videos! We have been a huge fan of Mark forever 🙏
Lemme take you to the French quarter 👀 we can try all these spots then I can try all yours 😋
American history is so young and immature
Yeah I liked him in the bbq video too! 💯❤️
Of course he enjoys food. Look at him. Homeboy is like 350!
I have for sure fallen in love with Derek!!! He’s soooo chill.. and he knows what he’s doing for sure
All the OGs remember your brother in law from the bbq video, and then he had to go to work 😂 Anyway he is such a great addition to your videos, he’s so knowledgeable and consciously descriptive of the things he tastes.
You’re the goat, Mark.
The "that's delicious AF" lean that Mark does is becoming iconic 😂 This man's video series are awesome. When I was recovering from my covid coma, even when i couldn't talk, he kept a smile on my face. Thank you sir!
Never have I ever saw mark finishing an desert...... That means it had to be something extra special...... Now I'm craving for it....
right!
I personally would have shaken up those beignets so get an even coating of sugar!!! Very yum!
😋 yummmmm
That's why they put it in a bag.
Mark doesn't like a lot of sugar
Mark you are the paradigmatic of "Happiness and Positivity". Thank you for illuminating our planet with your smile of sun. God Bless you and your beautiful family and may your successful channel continue to shine stars of hope in these difficult times.
Love it when your BRL and sister join you. And then the cousins get to be together!!

Love New Orleans. Went there with my mom (RIP) back in 94. The food and the atmosphere was truly wonderful. Great to see your sister and brother in law joining you guys Mark.
It always makes me happy to see people enjoy my city. This made me smile the whole time.
ua-cam.com/video/E9mwW_0OJIs/v-deo.html😀😃
I remember Derek from the BBQ video. Im really enjoying the history of each area, eatery and meals. It's awesome that Micah gets to play with his cousins. Xx
During the Civil War, coffee was a scarce commodity in Southern states. Therefore chicory was used as a substitute. Ira Lee P.h.D.
Mark said that already in the video.
Chicory was a beautiful compliment to the scarce coffee, the combination is awesome and unique without a doubt!
When Mark pulls out the collared shirt you know we are going someplace very special.
It's Mark's genuine facial expression every time he tastes something, lol😁👍
I can’t wait to go back. The food was heavenly! The cafe, music, food and people were amazing.❤❤❤❤
Mark: "Oh, the Wow Sauce..." Derek: "How appropriate for you." LOL!
Derek makes a great video partner. He seems like he really enjoyed himself and he and Mark get along so well.
I feel like the uncle that always says "omg hes gotten so big" every time I see Micah because of how long I have watched ole Mark. What I cant wait for is to see him start doing the Wien Lean thats followed up with "ooh" 💀💀
I love my city (New Orleans), I’m glad these guys enjoyed being here.
FOOD MAYBE THE ONLY UNIVERSAL Thing that really has the power to bring everyone together. NO MATTER WHAT CULTURE everywhere around the earth people eat together 💜🌎🍛🍜🍝🍤🍣🍢🍠

Hey there King & Ally!! We are a new channel and would love to know what you think of our latest Mukbang videos! We have been a huge fan of Mark forever 🙏
I want to go to Lousiana so bad! One day I will eat what you ate and enjoy it so much
My thoughts exactly. I felt the same when he was chowing down in Key Largo. 😋
The lady cooking the bananas foster while explaining it's history. Effortless and professional.
Thanks for visiting my home state and NOLA. You could spend many days here and basically never run out of dishes to eat. Many versions of the same meals by many different chefs.
Beignet tip: Always shake your bag first, before eating beignets. You're welcome! Come back soon! 💜💛💚
@@shireen1901 Touche
I have never read a truer statement!
Great tip Bruh 👍
But I like choking on the powder and making a mess of it.
This video was so joyful! I found myself smiling so many times. The great thing is you can do so many food tours of here like this and have such a great time each time. It’s a gift to be here even when it isn’t.
Nice to see Micah! So grown-up now and enjoying food with dad and uncle!
I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this video of New Orleans! Srsly, on my "Must Visit" list. Loved seeing you all together. I am happy that Derek had the opportunity to eat his fave dessert from where it was created. Super cool!!
Was there years ago, great food in New Orleans. By the way, Hispanics make what they call sopapillas.It means little pillow and is the same as beignets, though there might be a few differences. Here in San Antonio, they serve them with powdered sugar, and you can also get them with honey. We like to break them open and then drizzle honey inside.
@@hildahilpert5018I didn t know that. Thank you, I now know what to order when the opportunity arises!
Galatoire's: We have a "Dress Code" policy.
Mark: No worries, Derek. I got something.
Derek: Don't we look like Craig and Deebo?
Galatoire's: Have a seat in the back corner.
LOL!!!! Your comment has me DYING! 😂😂😂
And you know this...MAN!!!🤣🤣🤣
I thought the SAME thing about the dress code. ;-)
😂 I'm glad they let them in but them fancy shirts had me hollering 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Never miss what you have until its gone . I miss my home town 😞 😢
The fried dough you had is a classic in South Africa 🇿🇦
We call it a Vetkoek AKA fat cake, a deep fried dough made out of flour, yeast, sugar, salt & oil
We normally eat it with mince, snoek fish, mango chutney, cheese & polony. Wow a true classic
I was introduced to the Verti Marte back in the 90's and I am thrilled to see it's still rocking out the most amazing food at an affordable price. Sat outside of their place eating one time and saw the infamous 'Duck Lady' walk by, followed by her duck. NOLA for the win when it comes to food, architecture and eccentric citizens going about their daily lives.
ua-cam.com/video/E9mwW_0OJIs/v-deo.html😀😃😄
Chicory is a herb that in Michigan is found along most country roads growing wild. We call it Corn Flower but the dried root stock that is roasted makes the coffee substitute. Great review of New Orleans French quarter food.
Americans are youngest nation you've not got got history yet relax
It grows in europe as well, not my cup of tea, or coffee.
Coffee is not real without chicory, Community is the best
@Nicholas you save the world twice?? *it was the Russians that won ww2 please relax

Was sooooo happy you went to Verti Mart. I’m from the Lafayette area and my husband is born and raised from New Orleans. This is where we went to eat after our first date and fell in LOVE with the All That Jazz PoBoy. Thank you for enjoying our Louisiana food and flavors❤️❤️🙏🙏
Mark, another excellent video! Thank you, New Orleans is on my bucket list. So cool you featured your brother-in-love and gave us a glimpse of your beautiful family 💞. Keep up the exceptional work and safe travels!
Louisiana is one big gumbo pot of culture and cuisine! ❤️
Bradas Mark & Derek, what beautiful families you guys have got! Love seeing family eat together. May the good times continue for ya'll. :)
OMG Mark! Seriously, HOW do you fit all this food in, in one day? I lived in NO for 3 years, it is amazing, nostalgic, cultured, sentimental and such a food heaven. Galatoire's put you in the back because you have the children with you and the dress code for lunch is Business casual. Thank you for the walk down memory lane.
