Gumbo is what most people think of first when considering Cajun food. Gumbo is the one food offered at the festival
that's not made by festival volunteers. Rather, gumbo is offered by both amateur, professionals and culunary cooks in the Great Gumbo Cook-off. The gumbo Judging is made by expert judges selected for their knowledge of gumbo. No politicians or media personalities here so the cooks have to make the good stuff. |
