Spring is coming, friends! After a long winter, you need to get out. Let your ears lead you to the happy tunes pumping out of Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar. While you’re here, grab some tasty, fresh treats and delicious beverages to wash it all down. Here are a few of our favorite Spring meals in Nashville served at the, one and only, Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar. Shrimp Po'Boy w/Abita Amber Lager As the weather turns toward Spring, we like to enjoy a Grilled Shrimp Po'Boy, “dressed!” When you ask for your po’boy “dressed” in Louisiana, the sandwich comes with tomato, lettuce, pickle, and mayo. We continue that tradition with this delicious sandwich. And of course, there’s nothing like a crisp Abita Amber Lager to quench our thirst and keep the good vibes going.

One of our favorite times of the year has arrived – King Cake season! This sweet cinnamon pastry is covered with icing and splashed with the Mardi Gras colors we love – green, yellow, and purple. A little history lesson for you – the cake is the centerpiece of a historically Catholic celebration known as Epiphany which falls on January 6 and begins the Carnival Season running all the way to Fat Tuesday aka Mardi Gras! The idea is to get your fill of sweets in preparation for Lent, a time of fasting, which begins the day after Mardi Gras. To help you keep the spirit alive at home this year, we decided to set you up with a list of places in the Nashville area to order your own. Check it out below and celebrate! PS – Don’t forget to come to our very own Mardi Gras celebration, February 10-16. See more. Lilli Bella’s Cakes Located in Hendersonville, Lili Bella’s is known for their made from scr ...

City vs. Country Sometimes, it’s about where you came from. In this case, Cajun food is associated with country Louisiana cooking, and Creole food is associated with city cuisine. When you think Creole, think New Orleans. Cajun, on the other hand, is more often associated with the Southwestern rural areas of Louisiana. 2. What They Mean The term “Creole” was used to describe people who were born to French settlers in Louisiana, especially in the New Orleans area. As time went on, the term grew to encompass more and more individuals living in the area, not just descendants of the settle ...
