Before joining the paradelike march to Crew stadium, you’ll want to visit Creole 2 Geaux for quick, affordable, and comforting New Orleans-style cooking. The casual spot is great for grabbing some sticky-sweet bourbon chicken to go, or sitting down with a quick bowl of gumbo and rice loaded with chunks of andouille sausage at the small bar. They also do great sandwiches you can house on the street during your walk—don’t miss their crispy catfish po’boy.
