Within the city limits the boys find a taste of Italy with Via Elisa’s fresh spinach and ricotta ravioli, made with recipes from the president of Italy’s pasta chef himself. Along the way Jamie and Bobby uncover a velvety slice of Southern tradition with Sweet Auburn’s Sweet Potato Cheesecake.

The boys really soak up the Cajun spirit with a cup of Tee-Eva’s Seafood Gumbo, a succulent and uniquely New Orleans dish that has graced the tables of Hollywood stars and in-the-know locals alike. Of course, the King Cake is an absolute must-have dessert when celebrating New Orleans' style, and Haydel Bakery is the place to be. They’ve been baking this royal pastry from scratch for generations.
