Bastille Day, Taylor Swift and fried chicken sandwiches

Bastille Day, Taylor Swift and fried chicken sandwiches

Bastille Day is this Sunday, July 14. Celebrate with gourmet provisions from some of our favorites, like La Boulangerie’s baguette (and more), a full cheese platter and “deep dive course” (on July 10) from St. James Cheese Company, croissants and pastries from Celtica French Bakery, and a bottle (or two) of rosé, bien sur, from Grand Krewe in Marigny or Martin’s Wine & Spirits Uptown and Metairie.

We love this collaboration between Commander’s Palace and French Truck Coffee. Coffee and chicory k-pods are now available at French Truck Coffee, Le Petit Bleu Cafe, or online. Can we also get a buddy road trip series from these two please?

If you have a Swiftie in your family (or are one yourself), you’ll want to mark your calendars for a special release from Fringe + Co this Saturday, July 13. Taylor Swift party t-shirts are coming soon, so be ready! They’re going to sell out.

Louisiana Fish Fry is calling on all home cooks to participate in the fried chicken sandwich challenge. Participants can submit their unique chicken sandwich recipes in the form of a photo or short video and compete against home cooks in six cities across the country from LA to NYC. Let’s bring this competition home, Louisiana! Send us your sandwich recipes!

Keep your eyes on the skies! Picnic Provisions & Whiskey has us wishing for rainy weather with their latest offer. With the purchase of an appetizer, you can now receive a free Paradise Park or Old Fashioned cocktail if it rains. Get your umbrellas ready and be weatherproof.

Our Great New Orleans Scavenger Hunt for July is finally in full swing! We love all the photos participants have uploaded and tagged us in. There’s still plenty of time to get started and check off all the stops on the list. Learn more about how to upload photos and enter to win a big prize package at The Chloe Hotel with an Oasis Pool Pass. Keep looking, we hope you have fun!
