MARDI GRAS AT JAZZ & A GIVEAWAY

 Mardi Gras is around the corner and Jazz: A Louisiana Kitchen has a lot in store. Not one but two Giveaways. A Mardi Gras celebration that will knock your socks off.

I and my husband have had quite a few vacations, to New Orleans, Mardi Gras included. Besides the history and sights and sounds, NOLA knows how to pack a punch when it comes to its food. Cajun and Creole favorites and not to forget Beignets. While our vacations have largely reduced, and the last Mardi Gras we had attended was at KCPL, Jazz came to the rescue with their Mardi Gras offering.

We do have a connection with Jazz itself. I love their Alligator Bites. If that is too bold for your taste, then they have an amazing menu to choose Creole and Cajun favorites from.

Before we start discussing all things food, let me tell you of the two Giveaways which Jazz is currently hosting.

Jazz will be taking the winner and a friend, on an all expenses paid trip to NOLA for Mardi Gras.

  Now let's talk about food, shall we! While I love their Alligator Bites, this time I settled for their Voodoo Crawfish Tails. Tender crawfish tails, beer battered and tossed in their spicy voodoo sauce and served with either ranch or blue cheese dressing . I love the layers of flavor in this, as you cannot miss a touch of tang along with the spice. You can sense a crawfish theme, throughout my meal for the day.

Then it was onto Crawfish Etouffee. Crawfish tail meat sauteed in their dark roux and stock sauce. A Cajun staple with a nutty flavor. This is another favorite of mine. While I have explored their menu extensively over the years, I keep coming back to my favorites. 

My Husband ordered the Stuffed Catfish. Two beer battered catfish filets, piled on top of their seafood stuffing and topped with cheesy alfredo sauce. Served with new potatoes and veggies. Our daughter opted for the Popcorn Shrimp platter from their kid's menu. 

How can we not order Beignets and chicory coffee to finish off our meal! 

So go ahead and try your luck in both the Giveaways hosted by Jazz! And if you are in KC, you might want to head to Jazz for their Mardi Gras celebration on March 5th. Bon Appetit!
