The Shrimp Boil Experience begins with a tasting of fresh caught fish from Lake Pontchartrain. Then a local blue crab appetizer, an alligator sausage tasting and a presentation about our wild-caught Gulf shrimp. We prepare the boil in front of you then invite you inside where we present the shrimp, cooked with corn and local sausage, and our special blend of Cajun boil seasonings. Later, we bring out hot towels to clean up and to finish we present a signature dessert and a tasting of New Orleans style chicory cafe au lait.
