Chef Ric Orlando

​

Celebrate New Orleans cooking with Chef Ric Orlando and learn how to make his super authentic "Everything Gumbo".

​

This is the real deal baby!  Slowly cooked, dark and earthy, OMG-delish stew.  This is a dish you can mess around with your “Everything”. Got a little Gator, cooked duck or a leftover lobster? Throw it in!

​

But it is not a party without cocktails.  Learn how to make the classic Sazerac to enjoy with your gumbo.

​

When you buy your tickets, we will send you a shopping list so you can purchase the ingredients.  On the day of the event we will send you a Zoom invite.  Cook along or just drink Sazeracs and follow along and cook gumbo when you feel like it.

​

Tickets are $50 with 100% of the net profits being donated equally between the non-profits.

​

Grab your beads, and help us work together to combat hunger, and "Laissez les bon temps rouler" (Let the good times roll)!
