Gumbo night!

Gumbo night at Buzz and Minette's was again the event of the summer.  Minette uses Buzz's family recipe, which dates well over 100 years ago.  Made with chicken and Andouille sausage, this recipe does not call for okra and is served soupier than it is commonly made in Louisiana.  This annual visit has completely ruined me for Gumbo elsewhere, a dish that I love but can't find a place that will compete with this awesome rendition.

Some light appetizers (including a lobster flatbread (pictured) were served just to open our appetite (as if the smell coming down the hallway didn't already do that).  The food was great, the company was terrific as were the hosts and we had a great time.  Thanks Buzz and Minette.
