The Origin Story

One summer in college, my dad and I took a trip south to New Orleans where the jazz music hums through the streets whether or not anyone is playing, and where you can pick up 'cracklins' or crawfish on the side of the road.

We took the backroads through tiny towns whose restaurant delicacy remains a humble ham sandwich with mayonnaise. By the time you get to NOLA, the food scene evolves into arguably one of the most remarkable in the country. Fortunately for me, when my family eats out there's one meal we don't skip: dessert.

Whether we're pot bellied full and laughing with too many glasses of wine, we'll always make room for something sweet. So when my dad and I decided to have breakfast on our last day in the French Quarter, we eagerly ordered banana's foster. A dessert made for good showmanship, and apparently also welcome at the breakfast table.

Reminisce your bold food memories and enjoy the showmanship of this smoked Bananas-Foster vibe chocolate topped with shards of caramelized sugar and salt.
