Shreveport-Bossier: See It, Bet It, Taste It!
The northwestern part of Louisiana, in and around Shreveport-Bossier City, is a little different than the rest of the state. It's a mixture of spicy Cajun tradition and wide-open Texas spirit, where cowboy meets Creole. Here, spicy Louisiana crawfish meet cowboy-cut ribeye steaks. The music that drifts through the air could be dixieland jazz or Texas roadhouse blues, depending on which side of the street you're on.
Louisiana's Other Side is a term used to describe our location in the state and our unique combination of Louisiana's Cajun and Creole culture and East Texas cowboy heritage. From the glittering excitement of the casinos to the wonderful array of festivals, the mouth-watering local cuisine, fantastic shopping and numerous outdoor activities, museums and attractions -- Shreveport-Bossier has all of the necessary ingredients for a memorable getaway. Visit shreveport-bossier.org to explore all that Louisiana's Other Side has to offer.

When in Shreveport
My stepsister Kadie and I decided to take a spontaneous small, trip to Fudds. We ate, but mostly laughed. I swear there’s NEVER a dull moment when we get together. Never.

New Orleans, Louisiana, United States, North America
New Orleans is a major United States port and the largest city and metropolitan area in the state of Louisiana. The population of the city was 343,829 as of the 2010 U.S. Census. The New Orleans metropolitan area (New Orleans--Metairie--Kenner Metropolitan Statistical Area) had a population of 1,167,764 in 2010 and was the 46th largest in the United States. The New Orleans--Metairie--Bogalusa Combined Statistical Area, a larger trading area, had a 2010 population of 1,214,932. The city is named after the Duke of Orleans, who reigned as Regent for Louis XV from 1715 to 1723, and is well known for its distinct French Creole architecture, as well as its cross-cultural and multilingual heritage. New Orleans is also famous for its cuisine, music (particularly as the birthplace of jazz), and its annual celebrations and festivals, most notably Mardi Gras. The city is often referred to as the most unique in America. New Orleans is located in southeastern Louisiana, straddling the Mississippi River. The city and Orleans Parish (French: paroisse d'Orléans) are coterminous. The city and parish are bounded by the parishes of St. Tammany to the north, St. Bernard to the east, Plaquemines to the south and Jefferson to the south and west. Lake Pontchartrain, part of which is included in the city limits, lies to the north and Lake Borgne lies to the east. New Orleans has many major attractions, from the world-renowned French Quarter and Bourbon Street's notorious nightlife to St. Charles Avenue (home of Tulane and Loyola Universities, the historic Pontchartrain Hotel, and many 19th-century mansions), to Magazine Street, with its many boutique stores and antique shops. According to current travel guides, New Orleans is one of the top ten most visited cities in the United States; 10.1 million visitors came to New Orleans in 2004, and the city was on pace to break that level of visitation in 2005. Prior to Katrina, there were 265 hotels with 38,338 rooms in the Greater New Orleans Area. In May 2007, there were over 140 hotels and motels in operation with over 31,000 rooms. A 2009 Travel + Leisure poll of America's Favorite Cities ranked New Orleans first in ten categories, the most first-place rankings of the 30 cities included. According to the poll, New Orleans is the best U.S. city as a spring break destination and for wild weekends, stylish boutique hotels, cocktail hours, singles/bar scenes, live music/concerts and bands, antique and vintage shops, cafés/coffee bars, neighborhood restaurants, and people watching. The city also ranked second for gay friendliness (behind San Francisco, California), friendliness (behind Charleston, South Carolina), bed and bath hotels and inns, and ethnic food. However the city was voted last in terms of active residents and near the bottom in cleanliness, safety, and as a family destination. The French Quarter (known locally as the Quarter or Vieux Carré), which dates from the French and Spanish eras and is bounded by the Mississippi River, Rampart Street, Canal Street, and Esplanade Avenue, contains many popular hotels, bars, and nightclubs. Notable tourist attractions in the Quarter include Bourbon Street, Jackson Square, St. Louis Cathedral, the French Market (including Café du Monde, famous for café au lait and beignets) and Preservation Hall. To tour the port, one can ride the Natchez, an authentic steamboat with a calliope, which cruises the Mississippi the length of the city twice daily. Unlike most other places in The United States, and the world, New Orleans has become widely known for its element of elegant decay. The city's many beautiful cemeteries and their distinct above-ground tombs are often attractions in themselves, the oldest and most famous of which, Saint Louis Cemetery, greatly resembles Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. Also located in the French Quarter is the old New Orleans Mint, a former branch of the United States Mint, which now operates as a museum, and The Historic New Orleans Collection, a museum and research center housing art and artifacts relating to the history of New Orleans and the Gulf South. The National World War II Museum, opened in the Warehouse District in 2000 as the National D-Day Museum, is dedicated to providing information and materials related to the Invasion of Normandy. Nearby, Confederate Memorial Hall, the oldest continually operating museum in Louisiana (although under renovation since Katrina), contains the second-largest collection of Confederate memorabilia in the world. Art museums in the city include the Contemporary Arts Center, the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA) in City Park, and the Ogden Museum of Southern Art.
Road Trip #163 - US-80 W - Gibsland to Minden, Louisiana
We continue on the next segment of US Highway 80 westbound, beginning at the eastern city limits of the small town of Gibsland, Louisiana in Bienville Parish. Gangsters Bonnie and Clyde were killed just 8 miles south of Gibsland in 1934, by Texas and Louisiana state troopers. On Main Street is the Bonnie and Clyde Ambush Museum, in what was once the cafe where they had their last meal.
After leaving Gibsland, we pass through the small unincoporated communities of Taylor and Ada, and then cross to the north side of I-20. We enter Webster Parish, and then US-79 Truck route joins us as we approach Minden. We end the drive at the eastern city limits of MInden, Louisiana.

Louisiana Culinary Trails - Red River Riches
The Red River runs through Shreveport/Bossier City, and the area that sits near the Texas border has always been know for its wild side. Early feuds have given way to a killer nightlife, with riverboat casinos, good music, and memorable cuisine. The wealth of fresh waterways provides an abundance of fish and wildlife, as well as fertile ground for fruits and vegetables. The discovery of oil in the early 20th century brought an influx of people, expanding the already mixed bag of immigrants. More recently, the film industry has discovered the area's riches. Today's diners find themselves rubbing elbows with Hollywood's elite - all with the same goal in mind: to soak up the flavors of this metropolitan crossroads.
