Food Heritage & Demonstration Stage

PHOTO BY JOSH BRASTED

THE FOOD HERITAGE STAGE BRINGS A VARIETY of chefs and cooks to celebrate Louisiana’s culinary traditions. From fresh gulf seafood to the wealth of wild game and fish found here in Sportsman’s Paradise, the demonstrations reflect the rich bounty of the state. We also celebrate the abundant multi-cultural influences on our modern day food ways. As a special treat, we are hosting a mini Drag Brunch featuring some of New Orleans renowned drag queens led by ringleader local culinary personality and cookbook author Poppy Tooker.
