I've been on a number of food tours in other cities and the one thing that Kristi did better than the others was first making introductions of each person on this small tour (10 of us) and facilitating interaction among us which lead to one of the most enjoyable tours I've been on. Sure the food is important, but the mood is even more! But on to the food. We were glad to get out of the French Quarter to see a different neighborhood and their take on NOLA classics. Not everything I tried was a hit for me but most of it was very good to outstanding. My favorite turned out to be the alligator sausage at Dat Dog...the thing i thought I'd like the least! That's why doing food tours are so great, they take you to places you wouldn't go to on your own and you sample things you might not otherwise try. Thanks Kristi for a great afternoon...the group stayed for a while after you left and we all had a great time together!!
