From king cake cocktails to decadent, multi-course menus, local restaurants are pulling out all the stops to make Mardi Gras 2021 special. Some have king cake-inspired desserts, like the GW Fins praline-stuffed soft pretzel king cake and Reginelli’s skillet king cake bread pudding. Others include rabbit, lamb, scallops, crawfish, and glitter chicken and waffles (shoutout, Galentine’s Day at Jack Rose). Whether you chose to dine in or would prefer to order take out, enjoy the best of NOLA cuisine this Mardi Gras season.
