Well this Tuesday was of course Fat Tuesday (The first day of Mardi Gras) and I wanted to celebrate.  I did some research and found a newly opened place in sparks called “Jazz Cajun Cafe”.  This place was slammin!  They had live music and from what I was told, the live band place every night and the decoration was as close to authentic as possible but the real test was the FOOD.  I am a huge fan of Cajun / Southern food; i was raised in Dallas, TX so when it comes to good Cajun food, I can be quite the critic.  Well, I must say that the food was PAR but for the people that are looking for a great experience and a good introduction into the cooking flavors of the Cajun Lands, head down to “Jazz Cajun Cafe”.  During our visit at “Jazz Cajun Cafe” we had Boiled Crawfish, Alligator Fritters & Jambalaya….see scorecard below.

SCORE CARD (4+’s being the highest score):

Crawfish: ++

Alligator Fritters: ++

Jambalaya: ++

P.S. THE HOT SAUCE WAS “BOMB!” Especially if you like Lousiana Style (Tomatoe – Vinegar  Based) Sauce!- NO DOUBT
