Ever heard of the 'gumbo gauge' or the art of mixing gumbo with a scoop of potato salad? Well, buckle up as we take you on a nostalgic journey, reminiscing about the iconic Louisiana dish and the unique family traditions associated with it. We engage in a hearty debate about the perfect weather to cook gumbo and discuss our favorite ways to enjoy this quintessential dish. It's a trip down memory lane as we recall our stepdads' unique gumbo cooking methods, the importance of filet from Cameron Parish, and share our personal tips on how to keep it lasting longer.
But the gumbo talk is just the appetizer! We then navigate through Lafayette's vibrant bar culture, discussing everything from iconic city bars like La Fondas and Plaza to the unique swag associated with each. We wax lyrical about the old Real Super Store, the $10 cover charge, the movie theater, and more. We reminisce about Lafayette's unique 'to-go cup' phenomenon, the 'tape on top of the daiquiri', and how locals express themselves and their culture. Lastly, we delve into the city's infamous speed limits, particularly those on Camelia and Ambassador. So grab a bowl of gumbo, sit back and join us for this nostalgic roller-coaster through Lafayette's gumbo and bar culture!
