Bonjour Marie! Yeah, I could tell that the place mostly did Southern US food not specifically Louisiana food. I did see some Louisiana dishes, but mostly it seemed more "Southern" than "Louisiana" with the chicken and waffles (which many say comes from South Carolina, but was actually first invented in Pennsylvania,) the Nashville Hot style (Tennessee,) and the Yams (the majority of yams eaten in the US are grown in North Carolina.) The fair food looked amazing, and I bet it smelled incredible with the meats and fries cooking outside like that, lol! Thanks for sharing! Hi Marie's Mom! Bonne journee! ~Be Blessed

@@aquilapetramShe mentioned that it had been open for 10 years and had to make some changes to appeal to Parisian diners, so I guess going "Southern Style" as opposed to "Louisiana Style" is what they had to change?

Real yams are grown in Africa and are/were a dietary staple. When enslaved Africans were brought to the U.S., there were no actual yams here but the closest things were sweet potatoes. So they prepared them in the style of yams and they came to be known as such in the states. But if you look up African yams they are much larger and colored/shaped differently.

the yams in america are not sweet potatoes Although they may look similar to sweet potatoes, they are an entirely different species (yams belong to the Dioscoreaceae family and are related to grasses and lilies, and sweet potatoes belong to the morning glory family) and not even remotely related.

Great Video and always nice to see you and your Mom enjoying yourselves and laughing! Your friend was wrong about the Yams. Sweet Potatoes and Yams are actually different even though they look kind of similar. Yams are firmer, drier, and have a rougher dark bark like skin, and light colored flesh inside that's less sweet and more starchy. Sweet Potatoes have a more golden/copper colored skin, and the flesh inside is sweeter and orange colored. The ones you were eating were actually Sweet Potatoes with the orange coloring they had. Most places mistakenly call them Yams but they aren't.

Although they're often prepared in similar ways, sweet potatoes originated in tropical South America (they're relatives of the morning glory) and yams originated in West Africa. In botanical terms, they're not closely related at all.

At holiday dinners it's common to have sweet potatoes baked in a casserole dish with a sugary glaze & melted marshmallows on top. My favorite gumbo is "Gumbo Ya Ya" which is a chicken & sausage gumbo. My favorite restaurant where I order gumbo ya ya is at Mr. B's Bistro on Royal St. in the French Quarter of New Orleans.

The food prices have skyrocketed in NOLA the past couple of years. I suggest we contribute to the cause the next couple of weeks because many are underestimating that costs in New Orleans now. Also many places will allow a split on 1 gumbo order where you can share a single order with your companion. There are in general 2 types of gumbo: 1) thinner with a lighter rue, and 2) thick like molasses with a much heavier rue, take the soupier one. The food is so tasty but so heavily spiced that visitors need to take care and have a day off or intersperse with light and healthy (especially stomachs from overseas). This is the Sazerac and Hurricane capitol. Try a Sazerac (drink) to say you've done it. Hurricanes (drink=dangerous) are for those who want to get splashed unawares--potent and hangover. Try the turtle soup at the better restaurants if offered, it is delicious.

@@you_can_call_me_T A curious thing happens in the islands of the South Pacific (Polynesia and Melanesia). There are four main starch plants: 1) Taro (brought originally from Southeast Asia by the islanders as part of their settlement); 2) breadfruit (brought from the Caribbean by British and French traders and whalers); 3) Yams (brought by Dutch traders); 4) Sweet potato (brought from South America by Spanish traders). There are also four colors: White, off-white, yellow-orange, and a light purple. But the same plant doesn't have the same color from island group to island group; the purple plant will be breadfruit in one island cluster, but taro in another cluster a few hundred kilometers away. If you find as a traveler that you like some plants and don't like others, the color isn't a clue as to which one you're about to eat - you have to ask which one is which on that island.

It's awesome seeing you out with your mom having fun and trying different things. I couldn't help but smile when she was laughing at you as you were trying to find your words. I can understand how difficult it must be switching between languages, especially more than two. I look forward to seeing you off on another adventure.

Believe it or not fried chicken came to America from Scottish immigrants , black folks spiced it up alongside collard greens , south Carolina's state Vegetable. Soul food been passed down over many generations but the term was first coined in 62 by poet & civil rights activist Amiri Baraka , some after Sylvia restaurant opened up in Harlem. What I wanna know is how come they're wasn't any Gumbo 🥘 , kinda disappointing , you could both try cooking up your own ( without any secret recipe) if you get the Roux just right. It's gonna be amazing if you get invited to a Gumbo party in the big easy. Your hometown fair sizzling , they sure know how to put on a BBQ that would make even a Kenyan nomad 'nyama choma' ( there crusine been influenced by france) proud , that's a crazy amount of fries , it all looks so filling , your mom was enjoying those 🥯 ain't they also known as pancake balls ( Aebleskiver)& traditionally served at Christmas , it weird that it translate as Apple slices but doesn't have any. It been marvelous like always, with all those close ups I'm hungry now. Before I go I wanted to mention there's a few people recently like Andre from European reacts , I believe he's from Portugal & L3WG have been promoting your American videos .

The menu was actually in both English and French. The dish names were in only English, but there's nothing odd about that. French restaurants in the states serve dishes with French names... Maybe having the writing on the building in only English wasn't the smartest choice, but the French aren't likely to be offended or as consciously protective of their French as people in Quebec. They own the language and have spoken it for over two thousand years. I guarantee you they don't feel threatened lol. French has only been in Canada for a few hundred years and French speaking areas are surrounded by English speaking areas. So it makes sense to guard it if you don't want it to slip away. But I doubt the French are worried about that lol.

It is not called that by people who are from the South

I'm black and I live in the south.... The term soul food is definitely used. It's not a blanket term for southern food though. It refers to black southern cooking made in the style of our ancestors. There are some southern dishes that are generally considered home cooking (many of which were heavily influenced by black cooking). But for it to be soul food, it's gotta have that *thang* on it. There are restaurants down here that describe themselves as southern cooking, home cooking, comfort cooking, etc. But if you're gonna call it *soul food* there better be some black women in the kitchen with a little extra arm fat, preparing that food with love and seasoning lol
