My grandmother and grandfather were both from Sicily. They moved to New Orleans in 1904. They were very adamant that their children, all 8, were Americans. My mom never learned Italian because they would not teach them but the house was filled with a mixture of New Orleans and Sicilian food and culture. What a wonderful life I had as a kid with my cousins and aunts and uncles, French and German on one side and Italian on the other and New Orleans everywhere. I am so happy that both of you enjoyed the food and your visit, just so happy.
After I lived in New Orleans for ten years and two years in Baton Rouge, I moved to Missouri. At my job in Missouri my difficult co-worker and I spent much time together because we would travel to different cities and stay each night in a motel. I decided to talk about things that were not controversial. One day my co-worker asked me why I was always hungry. I was quite puzzled so I asked him to explain. He said I must be hungry because I was ways talking about food. I thought about it for awhile and realized that I talked about food because I thought it was a good topic of conversation, not because I was hungry. In Louisiana people would talk about the food that they had eaten, the food that they were going to eat later in the day and their ideal food. Food was a very popular subject in Louisiana but not in Missouri. I realized that most people in Missouri don't talk about food and don't appreciate good food.
I am from St Louis and also spent time in New Orleans often for business. Everyone I know from my hometown talks about food, because we have enclaves of people from everywhere (and are a well kept secret). Name an ethnicity and you will find immigrants from there running a great restaurant here. We have the last 'little Italy' in America. I love the food in Louisiana but it does not have the diversity of Missouri. Sorry your coworker was such a dud.
I know what you mean. I lived in the New Orleans area for 7 years and I couldn't get enough of the food, the people and the whole vibe of the place. There's no place else like it and man, I really miss the food. Just today, I was thinking how much I could go for a shrimp Po' boy for lunch. Just sayin'.
Interesting. New Orleans Food scene is a culinary delight. Food is a big part of their culture. I love food, and I could literally talk about Food all day! 😆
The waiter describing the bread pudding must be the designed waiter for content creators. He was on the Jolly video also. Such a great choice. He's very personable.
Seeing this video makes me sad and embarrassed that I take all of what my city offers for granted. My family has been here in New Orleans for almost 200 years, and I never go into the city anymore to experience these delicious treats. You brought back many memories for me eating all of these desserts, and I can just taste them now. Thanks for this video and in showing the world our wonderful culture of New Orleans. Bon Appetit!
If things don't work out for you in New York, we have the true heart and soul of American food culture and history. Louisiana is one of the few places where we wear the pride of food on our souls just like Italy. Alessio knows how it feels when people desecrate food.
I grew up in New Orleans and in 7th grade we would take a unit of New Orleans history and the best part was a field trip to the quarter where we would tour the cabildo and Jackson square and the French market. The best part is we would end up at Cafe Du Monde for beignets and us kids would have milk instead of coffee with chicory.
I work across the street from Brocato's, and live a walking distance from Blue Oak BBQ. I enjoy your videos so much and am so happy that you enjoyed most of our food. I had no idea you had such a past connection to the city.
Bananas Foster is supremely delicious with all the deep caramel and banana notes combined with the hot and cold temperature difference! That one from Palace Cafe was so cute with the pyramid of ice cream! 🍨🍌
Alessio, you probably don't know this, but there used to be (in the early 1900s) a large Sicilian population between New Orleans and just into Mississippi. The reason that there aren't now is because whole Sicilian families (children included) were lyn€hed - my relatives included! My great grandmother's aunt was rap£d by a kk.k member. That guy came into her uncle's grocery store bragging to him about what he had done to his wife. My uncle unalived him. My great grandmother was awakened that night by her parents and they left everything they had, fleeing to Memphis. There are still a few families left, but most scattered to the wind or didn't survive. Didn't know if you would be interested in that little nugget of Italian-American history. Love you guys! 🤍🙏🕊
Interesting. I did military funerals while stationed in Baton Rouge. Once while waiting for the funeral my shipmate and I just walked about the cementary in Chactaw and all tombs (the entired cementary) had Italian names. When the funeral was over I asked the funeral director where were all the Italians and she responded ,"everywhere"....I was puzzled because I didnt see any signs of Italian presense, (the only other cultural presence was a small mexican restaurant where mexican workers ate). Chacktow, for the ones that do not know, is a very small, in the middle of nowhere town, between Baton Rouge, New Orleans and the border of Mississippi.
Yupp that’s why people need to know History. And also learn why the government created “Christopher Columbus Day!” They picked the wrong person for that day. But they were trying to appease the Italians.
I was born in NJ into a 2nd Gen Italian family and I did not realize how bad they were treated when we first came to America. It seems that there were several larger groups of foreigners that came to America in the middle to late 1800 after the civil war. I thought Chinese were the ones that were the group that was mostly treated like poo. 💩. But Italians and Irish were treated maybe even worse. I don’t really know how Jewish people were treated prior to WW2 but I wouldn’t think now with what’s going on that they were treated much better.
@@ditackett Yeah, we Jews had it pretty bad, even after ww2. And now (there have been a lot of incidents outside of my synagogue recently that are terrifying. We are being blamed for the evil actions of Net.anyahu and Ha.mas). But i do think that, collectively, Asians have probably faired the worst. As you said, the Chinese in particular. I think that whenever it comes to minorities, those with the smallest voices are usually the ones who have suffered the most. History belongs to the victor, unfortunately. The stories have all been stamped out, or altered. So many Chinese immigrants were killed - especially during the railroad days, as you know. Human beings are just horrible. Why can't people just see each other as what we are - family 😥. Sorry, i wasn't intending to rant 🤍🙏🕊
We just got back from a Texas road trip and stopped in New Orleans for a day on our way back. Didn’t get to go to a ton of restaurants but we did hit up Parker’s Bakery and Tavern, Café Du Monde and The Original Pierre Maspero's. All were excellent.
I used to manage a tea room in Missouri and bread pudding with lemon whiskey sauce was our top selling dessert. Followed closely by Hummingbird cake. Haven't had it in years but theirs looks amazing.
It's on my list of places to go. New Orleans! Great food, nice people and love the music. Thank you for sharing your adventures! You guys are so much fun.
I've eaten at Palace Cafe many times and has always been exceptional. When in NOLA, you must go to Commander's Palace which is THE ICON and have the bourbon bread pudding soufflé. And another place to go is Mothers for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Informal and another long time icon. Roast beef poboys.
I implore yall to visit Liuzza's... and get the "frenchaletta" so yummy.. this was also featured on Food Network... and right down the street from Liuzza's is Katie's.. they have a signature pizza that is super yummy.. (can't remember the name right now but) it has pork..a garlic sauce..and its delish... also.. their double cut pork chop is 🔥 too!
Love you guys!!! I've been so in the mood to bake and cook, well, more than usual. I made beignets for my family for dessert last night. Soo yummy!! ❤❤❤ I think the bread pudding is next! That gentleman explained it so yummingly!! Lol❤❤😊😊
Bread and butter pudding is awesome. A memory from my UK childhood. Mum made an awesome one because we had to come home from school for lunch because we lived under a mile away. We got our steps in big time from the age of 5. 4 miles a day.
Bread pudding is from we don't waste food. I still make it today. Stale bread, eggs, maybe some milk, cinnamon, ginger, make a caramel for the top. Once upon a time a young gentleman was trying to wooo me and he made me supper, He made bananas Foster for dessert. I was waaaaay impressed. Cafe du Monde is your romantic spot? That is so sweet! (pun intended). Gods, this make me wish.
This must be the food capital of the USA! Super excited to be visiting soon - thanks so much Jessi & Alessio for all your great dining tips and reviews. You deserve a show of your own on the Food Channel. Bread pudding looks like English bread & butter pudding, but next level :)
As a New Orleanian, Alessio blowing on the snoball gave me a good chuckle.Our food is unique and most locals will experiment with desserts at different restaurants. Bread pudding is rarely "bad", Bananas Foster is hard to beat, beignets can be hit-or-miss, as are snoballs. When it comes to savory dishes, it's a completely different story. Most savory dishes, red beans and rice, gumbo, jambalaya, etoufee, etc. are better made at home or at your Momma's and them.
Lived in New Orleans 40 years ago. Cannot remember which restaurant had a Bread Pudding Soufflé with Bourbon Sauce. To die for. When I first moved there one of my friends would call and we would eat Sunday night dinner. For dessert Bananas Foster. A few years later I would make Bananas Foster Bread Pudding with rum sauce.
Great exploration of the city! I grew up in New Orleans and I live in Paris. Every time a family member comes out to visit me in Europe, they bring me coffee from Cafe Du Monde, and cookies from Brocato's. I'm curious to know if you tried their cuccidati and biscotti regina. Cheers!
This was a really cool video. The bananas foster actually looked better than Brennan's. I like making my own bread pudding but love hearing the other ways to make it as well. Jessi is right on why it was made the way it was made originally. Am curious if you can get the beignets with a little less sugar on them. Would love to try the Italian desserts.
Bread Pudding is a favorite in our house. I got a bread machine during the pandemic so now we have a decent amount of leftover homemade bread at the end of the week. Eggs, cream, seasonings, and stale bread is all you need to make a basic bread pudding which is great for either a super indulgent weekend breakfast or a tasty dessert.
I've been to New Orleans a dozen times...and I've STILL never been to Cafe Du Monde.. 😂😂 I heard it's a hit or miss...and I'm thinking..how can you eff up fried bread/dough covered in powdered sugar...
Never had a bad beignet at Cafe DuMond. Also, when things aren't up to standards, remember, sometimes life gets in the way. If you expect perfection every moment, you are living in a fantasy world. Life happens. Get over yourself because I know for a fact, you are not perfect. SMH
When you take another short trip, you should try Federal Hill in the Italian section of Providence. Many of the restaurants are owned by 1st and 2nd generation Italians. The food is phenomenal, and then you can watch the fire water display, with real gondolas on the Providence River. It is a treat for all who attend
Bread pudding is my simple favorite. It's cool that they made the Bananas Foster at the table. Caffè DuMond serves coffee with chicory ❤. Did he just blow on a SnowBall to cool it off? 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Beignets is pronounced like Ben-yays. My mother was born and raised un NOLA and so were many of my other family who are still there. Nothing like some strong chicory coffee. No chance any softy on the Starbucks wagon vould handle it. 😂
Regarding Angelo Brocato’s, I agree, spumoni is kinda “fake” tasting, but their gelato and Italian ice are excellent. Chocolate especially. Hope you had a chance to try those.
Alessio has got to try COCOS'S italian market and restaurant at 51st ave north and alabama ave near charlotte pike in nashville tn. and You can play bocce ball there. Perfect date night dinner. Its worth the trip.
I love you both. And I love that you blow on the food before you take a bite-even if it’s frozen. 😁
6:30 Awww! How sweet that Cafe Du Monde is where you told each other, "I love you," the first time! ❤😍😘
My grandmother and grandfather were both from Sicily. They moved to New Orleans in 1904. They were very adamant that their children, all 8, were Americans.

The waiter describing the bread pudding must be the designed waiter for content creators. He was on the Jolly video also. Such a great choice. He's very personable.
He’s just always there… every time I’ve dined there when I’m in town he’s working
Watching this lovely couple eat delicious desserts certainly is a treat! ❤

Thanks so much for going to Brocato's! I don't like the spumoni either, but I do love the rest!
very good place
My wife and I go there regularly after dinner instead of getting dessert at the restaurant.

Use a spoon, not a fork.
@@kenwest6300 agreed! Best method to get all that melted ice cream and syrup from the flambé!
All those desserts looked absolutely delicious! New Orleans is amazing...the food, the people, the culture & history.

years ago Italians had it rough pretty much everywhere in the states. they persevered with hard work and a stubborn attitude

I'm from El Salvador and my aunt would make Budin. Our spanish version of bread pudding. Its the best.
Oo! Bread pudding with bourbon sauce and toasted pecans! Yum! 🤤
😋
This brings me back to my Granny's table. Her bread pudding, rice pudding and banana pudding were superb!
Yeah someone finally said pecan😂😂😂
Bananas Foster is my hands down favorite dessert. Flambe desserts are so under rated.
I've eaten at Palace Cafe many times and has always been exceptional.
When in NOLA, you must go to Commander's Palace which is THE ICON and have the bourbon bread pudding soufflé.
And another place to go is Mothers for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Informal and another long time icon. Roast beef poboys.
Mother's is an overrated tourist trap. The most legit roast beef po'boys in town are from Parkway Bakery and Tavern.
The French we use for poboys is bought daily. Day old French bread is used for bread pudding.
I implore yall to visit Liuzza's... and get the "frenchaletta" so yummy.. this was also featured on Food Network... and right down the street from Liuzza's is Katie's.. they have a signature pizza that is super yummy..

when bread pudding is made correctly, it's complete and utter crack...(sooooo good...)...

Sending big hugs and love from a grandmother in Oregon.

Picked the best place for snowballs. Absolutely love Hansen’s. Coconut and nectar cream is my fav combo.
Glad y'all liked the food and snoballs in New Orleabs, my hometown. Grandpa Giovanni came here from Sicily.

Need to try Shuck’s bread pudding in Abbeville, Louisiana. It will knock your socks off. 12:26

You make me want to go to New Orleans right now!
I've been to New Orleans a dozen times...and I've STILL never been to Cafe Du Monde.. 😂😂 I heard it's a hit or miss...and I'm thinking..how can you eff up fried bread/dough covered in powdered sugar...
wrong oil temperature, using old oil, letting the beignets sit too long before serving. any of those variables can mess 'em up pretty bad.
@@romulus_ Well.. there should be a standard of making sure all these issues don't happen... the issues you mentioned are due to laziness...
@@pmg-1 sometimes kitchens get slammed. sometimes the cooks are hungover. a million things can go wrong and so they do.
@@romulus_ All I hear are excuses... if this happens more than 2 dozen times...its an issue that needs correction..
Never had a bad beignet at Cafe DuMond. Also, when things aren't up to standards, remember, sometimes life gets in the way. If you expect perfection every moment, you are living in a fantasy world. Life happens. Get over yourself because I know for a fact, you are not perfect. SMH

Bread pudding is my simple favorite. It's cool that they made the Bananas Foster at the table. Caffè DuMond serves coffee with chicory ❤. Did he just blow on a SnowBall to cool it off? 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
P.S
Try some raisins in bread pudding.
New Orleans food is amazing!
Beignets is pronounced like Ben-yays. My mother was born and raised un NOLA and so were many of my other family who are still there. Nothing like some strong chicory coffee. No chance any softy on the Starbucks wagon vould handle it. 😂
I, too, become a fork unicorn after tasting something unbelievably wonderful 😅❤🎉
I'm surprised no one cheered, when the flambe happened! That poor restaurant if my husband and I were there I audibly cheered here at home ... 🎉
gara2 anda, gua jadi ccraving new orleans/ southern America dish. Asli temptating bgt!
Cafe Du Monde at Jackson Square is everything and more!!!!
IM FROM LAFAYETTE, LOUISIANA AND IM GLAD ALESSIO LOVES LOUISIANA FOOD. IF Y'ALL GO TO LAFAYETTE ILL TRY TO GIVE YOU SOME GOOD PLACE TO EAT.
Man, I wanna make you two my grandma’s desserts. That lady knew how to cook!
Regarding Angelo Brocato’s, I agree, spumoni is kinda “fake” tasting, but their gelato and Italian ice are excellent.
Chocolate especially. Hope you had a chance to try those.
YOU TWO ARE THE CUTEST!!!❤
It’s made with a custard (eggs sugar cream spice)
I love bananas foster pancakes & French toast
Alessio blowing on his shaved-ice snowball to--warm it up??😄😄
Great video thanks.
Bread pudding is made with eggs, cream, sugar and spices..sometimes whiskey as well.
I’m partial to the bananas foster at commanders but it’s good all over town
What an angel she is
Pascals Manale and Mandinas are two places you should try.
Barbecued shrimp!
if a foodie italian came to NOLA and didnt like the food I would be shocked
Louisiana in the house! Y’all should try Lafayette food.
Oooh you did my favorite food category which is desserts. Everything looked delicious 😋 That second restaurant gave of Tiana vibes from Disney 💛
I had cheesecake stuffed Beignets topped with strawberry sauce and powdered sugar, of course.
New Orleans has got lot for Foodies!
Alessio has got to try COCOS'S italian market and restaurant at 51st ave north and alabama ave near charlotte pike in nashville tn. and You can play bocce ball there. Perfect date night dinner. Its worth the trip.
I agree. Brendan's does not caramelize their bananas enough.
Not surprising considering the once large Italian community in NOLA
Brennans and Palace are owned by the same people.
Am impressed with the ability to eat bignets without getting powdered sugar on clothes.
You guys are the sweetest most beautiful couple I’ve ever seen I hope this is real I hope you’re not fooling me!
My first thought seeing your puff sleeves was, “If you haven’t seen Anne of Green Gables, the movie NOT the show, please do”
Southern Americans damn sure know how to have a delicious breakfast! 👏
The snowballs look like Hawaiian shave ice. 😉
bananas foster on bread pudding is the way to go.
Love NOLA ❤❤
In Canada we have Ice Capps at Tim Hortons. Many years of our half frozen coffee.
Palace Cafe is o e if my favorite restaurants I NOLA!!!
This guy just loves Southern stuff
Breakfast at Brennan's! Went their in 1994, so good!!
turtle soup is a 10/10
To be honest, Starbucks can't hold the coattails of any local business/restaurant when it comes to quality coffee products.
I like that he blew on the shaved ice before eating it 😂
Bread pudding is like making French toast. You dip and stack then bake.
I cant even Imagine a desert made with banana,gived me the nightmare.
You guys making me hungry
nice to start the day ❤️
i love Alessio's polo shirts it looks very good on him...
Nobody cooks like Louisiana! NOBODY
You guys should come to the BBQ Championship at the American Royal in Kansas City. You will get to taste some of the best BBQ in the worldà
Can you get Alessio to try some skyline chili if you go to Cincinnati?
I am going to have to find some of that Torrone ice-cream.
But you could create a TH-cam Channel call "10 of the 10" ... it hasn't yet been taken.
hahaha great idea
Where's meeting pot of cultures it's impossible that the food is so bad❤❤❤
I'm pretty sure that discover connect Canadian guy stayed at that bands house while hit hing across the country
I am starting to think you two are secretly competitive eaters lol
