For Wisconsin native Sara Roahen, a Sazerac is also a fine accompaniment to raw oysters, a looking glass into the cocktail culture of her own family—and one more way to gain a foothold in her beloved adopted city.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRoahen's stories of personal discovery introduce readers to New Orleans' well-known signatures—gumbo, po-boys, red beans and rice—and its lesser-known gems: the pho of its Vietnamese immigrants, the braciolone of its Sicilians, and the ya-ka-mein of its street culture. By eating and cooking her way through a place as unique and unexpected as its infamous turducken, Roahen finds a home. And then Katrina. With humor, poignancy, and hope, she conjures up a city that reveled in its food traditions before the storm—and in many ways has been saved by them since.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sara Roahen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42849524514877,"sku":"9780393335378","price":38.66,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/7689\/2989\/files\/9780393335378_680499a6-3061-49a9-b549-ec5720f97a99.jpg?v=1767036100","url":"https:\/\/www.palmleaf.com.au\/products\/gumbo-tales","provider":"Palmleaf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
