Paul Prudhomme, if I am not mistaken, is died in the wool Cajun. Or, at least, he's a Louisiana
native...there is a difference.

However, if you have ever had the pleasure of visitng K-Paul in the French Quarter, you'll
immediately know the difference between 'authentic' Cajun style, and 'Showboat' Cajun style (which
is what I call the stuff Emeril does.)  Kind of like the difference between Mark Miller's take on
Southwestern Cuisine, and Bobby Flay's blue-corn-crusted Abomination.

Also, another great place to stop if you are in the NOLA area is John Folse's 'Lafitte's Landing'.
 Absolutely magnificent.
