"Brennan’s, the New Orleans icon, has long been known for its snapping turtle soup, but don’t sleep on its classic Creole gumbo. Here, the gumbo has a deep roux base, offers generous portions of crabmeat, shrimp, and oysters, and is crowned with the restaurant’s “Jazzmen” rice. The ornate, gold-trimmed dining room means this is a restaurant for special occasions — or any time the craving for Creole cuisine arises." - Brittany Britto Garley, Minh T. Truong
