Cajun’s are descendants of the Acadian French who were displaced from Canada and resettled here in Louisiana.
My wife only knows a few words of French but her grandmother spoke it. Our granddaughters are taught French in public school through a program from France.

Welcome! Louisiana is one of my all-time favorite states to eat in! Crawfish etouffee on some blackened redfish & rice, yum! Or snapping turtle soup and a fried alligator po'boy, yes! And, yes, I'll have bananas Foster for dessert, made at table side, thank you...

I do enjoy some good seafood, but raw oysters...
Tried 'em once. If I hadn't put hot sauce on 'em, there wouldn't have been any flavor!
Take care and God bless,
