Joining Chef Amy Sins in this culinary adventure will be her friend and favorite culinary sideckick, Chef Natasha Clement. Together these two bayou girls will cook alongside Chef Matthew Basford in the Canoe kitchen.
"Of course there will be a gumbo, because no Louisiana meal is complete without it. But it isn't your momma's gumbo, we will take it to the next level with a Lafayette potato salad, collard greens and then garnish it with fried chicken. It's sure to feed your soul," said Chef Amy Sins. "Diners can expect a fun and delicious combination of flavors full of Louisiana seafood highlighting the French, West African, German, Filipino and Vietnamese influences in Louisiana cuisine. We're coming with good food Atlanta, get ready to eat Louisiana style."
Prior to the restaurant night, Chef Amy and Chef Natasha will serve a Louisiana Seafood Couvillion and French crepes during the Restaurant Night Media Preview reception.
"Thanks to the Louisiana Seafood Board, we will be ready to impress with the biggest and most delicious shrimp around," said Chef Natasha.
“Our goal is to connect key influencers – writers, editors and producers – to our diverse heritage through our cuisine,” said Jill Kidder, LTA President and CEO. “In turn, the media’s influential stories will showcase our state as a culinary destination to the world.”
This effort is part of the Louisiana Culinary Trails campaign, a long-standing joint venture of LTA, the Office of Tourism and 18 convention and visitors bureaus from throughout the state.
“In Louisiana, good food is just part of what connects us to our diverse heritage, and we want to bring this experience to the people of Atlanta,” said Doug Bourgeois, Assistant Secretary for the Louisiana Office of Tourism. “For one night only, we are encouraging food enthusiasts from the Atlanta area to come experience Louisiana’s chefs, seafood and culinary traditions in some of their favorite restaurants. But most importantly, we want them to come to Louisiana one day and get a first hand taste of our state.”
