Every year the Roadhouse celebrates the traditions and culture of New Orleans and this year we journey back to the early 1800’s after the Louisiana Purchase when early German settlers landed in the city. Many of the first generation Germans became rice farmers, spending time in the fields harvesting what is now one of New Orleans staple foods. Chef Alex will explore the history and create a menu of foods traditional to a first generation German rice plantation farmer’s dinner.
