Andouille gumbo @jazzfest

I followed the tradition and my first dish at the fair ground was the
andouille gumbo.

The first time I came to jazzfest, I was really impressed by this
version of gumbo and have it as my first dish every year. Last year, I
was actually disappointed. I had it several times in different days to
confirm, and something was definitely wrong.

This year, I'm happy to say it's back to what it used to be: amazing.
The heavy broth, with the andouille and the pheasant meat, mixed with
white rice makes it the perfect opening act of foodfest!

First jazzfest meal

Jazzfest 2009

Like every year, for now 4 years, I'm going to New Orleans for the first week-end of Jazzfest. Last year, we had huge amount of rain. This year, it's supposed to be very warm.

I will blog about the festival, posting photos regularly and sharing the amazing meals we'll be having.

Can't wait!
