or at least popularized blackened seafood in the mid '70’s and he is definitely a cajun from around Opelousas, in the heart of cajun country. Po’boys are mainly a New Orleans thing. No where else in the state do they...

plantations and in the bayous in Cajun country and they agreed that the brown rice was much closer to the traditional - should I say authentic? - rice for Cajun dishes. I’ve been using it ever since for Dirty Rice,...

Did you ever try the Creole food at Chez Marie in Forestville? Wondering if gumbo is offered. A few others in the wine country are Central Market in Petaluma, GTO Seafood in Sebastopol and Cajun Moon in Petaluma offer gumbo from...
