Welcome to Louisiana Recipes
Last week I inadvertently placed Regatta restaurant in Port Arthur, which is in Texas, rather than Lake Arthur, in Jeff Davis Parish. Many of you tartly informed me that Texas should be so lucky as to have a restaurant like that; my apologies to all. At least I know you're paying attention! I'm a day late publishing this week because I was traveling and got behind on my to-do list. Many thanks to Frankie Bertrand, CEO and President of the Opelousas Chamber of Commerce, for inviting me to judge the 2012 Soiree Royale, and for putting us up in a very comfortable suite at Evangeline Downs Hotel. We had a great time, saw some old friends, met some interesting people, and came home with great ideas. Thanks to reader David L., we've changed our subscription policy to allow you to start your subscription with the premier issue if you'd like. The first two issues will be mailed out to you first class mail, and the third one will mail later this month. Football season is in full swing, the kids are back in school, and the long, slow pace of summer is a distant memory. This week's recipes were selected with all that in mind; there's a simple but tasty grilled shrimp and bacon appetizer for football parties, and a chili and jambalaya recipe that both require relatively little hands-on time. They both feed a crowd, making them a good choice for either a party, or tasty leftovers for later in the week. We've also put together a list of recipes to choose from for tailgating. Post your own favorites in the comments section at the bottom of the page. The cover pictured here came off press this week. If you've not done so already, SUBSCRIBE NOW and you'll get your own copy in the mail later this month. And finally, putting this newsletter together each week takes both time and resources, neither of which is free. We are able to give this newsletter to you at no charge because of the advertisers you see here and in our magazine, and we ask that you support them. Our paying subscribers to the print magazine support this effort as well, and we thank you all. Enjoy this week's recipes, and as always, let us know what's on your mind. Best- http://louisiana.kitchenandculture.com
