Unique Foods?

Hi Everyone,

I am an adventurous eater who loves trying things that I couldn't get elsewhere. I am looking forward to trying some Alligator dishes, but wanted to see if there are any other unique dishes worth trying?

Happy to hear about general dishes or specific places to eat. I am staying in the french quarter. Thanks!!

Another unique dish you can try is turtle. Along with alligator, it is a popular unusual ingredient in New Orleans. We had alligator bisque and turtle bolognese. There are a ton of unique dishes to try in New Orleans. 15 Traditional New Orleans Foods
