Vaucresson Creole Cafe & Deli New Orleans

You know the @vaucressoncreolecafeanddeli name from Jazz Fest and French Quarter Fest, where the family has served its Creole hot sausage po-boys from the start.

This heritage Creole business has partnered with a rising one, chef Bunny Young and her @eatcrawbabiesnola , to transform the deli with a robust daily menu.

Eating here feels like going back in time, to an era when many more neighborhood Creole joints dotted the city. It’s the kind of New Orleans cooking too often overlooked amid the flash and buzz of new trends.

But it’s the bedrock flavor that gives this city so much of its culinary weight to begin with and is immensely satisfying to see thriving here.

Start with the gumbo, gizzards and all.

Also here:
Smothered okra

Crawfish etouffee

Turnip greens (green change up daily)

The seafood potato Pontchartrain, with a whole fried catfish in there

Homey sides, lovey cake

And still those Vaucresson sausage po-boys on the table too.

Remember, closed Mondays.
