It’s Holy Thursday in New Orleans, so it’s the annual return of gumbo z’herbes and that means there are 9 new friends out there I’m waiting to meet this year. Who are they?

Holy Thursday at @dookychaserestaurant is one of the great community food days of New Orleans.

Gumbo z’herbes is not a special - it is a happening here that takes over the kitchen entirely. Preparation begins days in advance. This green gumbo, fried chicken and cornbread comprise the entire one-day menu.

The gumbo itself is a hearty mix Creole flavor and Catholic faith. The tradition also brings the restaurant’s own community role into focus by convening so many people who feel a connection to it.

While vegetarian gumbo z’herbes recipes are traditionally prepared for Good Friday, following the Catholic stricture of meatless fasts, Dooky Chase’s meaty gumbo z’herbes became a Holy Thursday staple to fortify the faithful before those deprivations. It’s made with brisket, ham, at least two types of sausage and stew meat in the mix.

Lore and ritual are also key ingredients to the dish, especially in the Chase kitchen. The number of greens used in cooking must be an odd number and is said to represent with how many new friends you’ll make. 

This year had 9 greens - so look out friends I haven’t met yet.

@hutongnyc has long been one of my favorite restaurants to return to - their Peking Duck is still my top choice in the city! Their menu also means there’s always something new to try, like the Beef Mille Feuille, Seafood Fried Rice, and the sublime Bao & Soy Milk dessert as well.

There’s a new Black-owned restaurant in Philly by the legend behind @tastecheesesteakbar, @kevinj.dolce, bringing a full lounge experience to Center City.

Drinks, food, a DJ, and a late-night energy that feels different from your typical dinner spot. It’s the kind of place you go when you want more than just a meal.

@savuphl just opened in Center City and it might become one of those go-to spots people keep coming back to. Definitely check it out if you’re looking for a fun night out in the city!
