What Louisiana City was Named Top Ten in the World for Food?
I'm sure it's not a surprise which city in Louisiana wins a Top Ten designation for food. Trip Advisor recognized their Top 10 Food Destinations in the world, and New Orleans came in at number 9... in the world... not too shabby. And since the only other US city that made the list finished 10th, Charleston South Carolina, that still makes New Orleans the Number 1 destination for food in the US.
The Top Ten list of food destinations according to Trip Advisor:
- Rome, Italy
- Crete, Greece
- Hanoi, Vietnam
- Florence, Italy
- Paris, France
- Barcelona, Spain
- Lisbon, Portugal
- Naples, Italy
- New Orleans, LA
- Charleston, SC
New Orleans is described:
New Orleans is full of life—but with a laid-back energy that sets it apart from other cities. You’ll wanna soak it all in: impromptu jazz performances up and down Frenchmen Street, the ding of the St. Charles Streetcar, moss-draped trees in the famous Garden District…even its gothic, above-ground cemeteries. (The city’s said to be one of the most haunted in America.) For some, NOLA will always be all about Bourbon Street, but for travelers looking to take it slow, the city’s distinct blend of cultures—including Creole and Cajun—means there’s tons to see, explore, and yes, eat.

Of course, with New Orleans, it's not just the food that makes the Crescent City so special and unique, it's the entire experience. There is absolutely nothing else like New Orleans... the architecture, the multitude of cajun, creole, french and african cultures, the music, and of course.. the food.
