Audio-only archive episode — no video to seek.
2 minTim details his recent New Orleans trip with his mom, describing his declining patience for long dinners and reviewing oysters, po'boys, pralines, beignets, and gumbo.
- 29:56Tim got oysters and a whole crab po'boy at Commander's Palace.
- 30:37Pralines are fine but very sugary; beignets were phenomenal.
- 31:00Beignets are fried dough with sugar on top—a little carnival shit.
- 31:10Tim can only eat a few bites of a beignet before he's done with it.
- 31:34Eggs Benedict in New Orleans uses a concentrated demi-glaze instead of hollandaise.
- 31:49This is why the food podcast didn't work—talking about what you like to eat is boring.
