New Orleans has long been considered one of the great cities in the United States for food lovers. But if you think that reputation is built solely on its roots in Creole and Cajun cooking, you just haven’t spent enough time eating in the Big Easy. Like the city itself, New Orleans is a melting pot of the world’s cuisines … you’ll find outstanding restaurants serving everything from Italian to Middle Eastern, Southeast Asian and African dishes, to name a few.
It’s probably no surprise given its location near the Gulf of Mexico that Caribbean cuisine is well represented, too. And I’ve found no better example than the food being served up at the Rum House Caribbean Taqueria.
