Joyeux Mardi Gras ! Laissez les bons temps rouler !
Happy Fat

Tuesday! Let the good times roll!

A little taste of the bayou for Mardi Gras dinner. Jambalaya, alligator bites, gumbo, shrimp etoufee, red beans and rice. For dessert fresh beignets.

Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday, refers to events of the Carnival celebration, beginning on or after the Christian feasts of the Epiphany (Three Kings Day) and culminating on the day before Ash Wednesday, which is known as Shrove Tuesday. Mardi Gras is French for "Fat Tuesday", reflecting the practice of the last night of eating rich, fatty foods before the ritual Lenten sacrifices and fasting of the Lenten season.
