    Born in Louisiana and lived here most of my life. I hear you about the slimy gumbo, most people will say that's the traditional way to make it and it is. It's slimy because okra is used to thicken it. The type you said you preferred ( I do as well ) uses gumbo file, a powdered spice to thicken it with. Next time you visit you'll know to ask how they make it to get the one you like. Oh and that shrimp and the oysters looked so damn delicious!

    That food looked delicious. You should definitely do more videos from New Orleans. Creole cuisine isn't nearly as spicy as Cajun cuisine. The jambalaya you had was a creole jambalaya, it's tomato based and lightly spicy. Thanks for including desserts as well. New Orleans has the best bread pudding. My hometown takes cooking seriously. Another great video!
