About this experience
Experience the real French Quarter at Shrimp Boil Cabaret
Step away from the tourist crowds and join us for a private dinner party celebrating the flavors and sounds of the Quarter. The Shrimp is sourced from local shrimping families at their boat docks a few hours before your shrimp boil to choose the largest, freshest, wild-caught local shrimp available. Mister Gregory, "The Shrimp Boil King of New Orleans" grew up in the Gulf South shrimping and boiling and advocating for wild-caught Gulf Shrimp and the "eat it to save it" culinary approach. Please join us for live local music and a lovely dinner party, make some new friends and eat the very best shrimp in the world.

Itinerary and highlights
An Intimate Experience in the French Quarter, we are famous for our Shrimp Boils. Step away from the tourist crowds and join us for authentic local dishes and stories. Enjoy this opportunity to experience it as a VIP, with a small group and Mister Gregory himself preparing your meal. The experience features a multi-course menu, storytelling and live music.
The Shrimp Boil Experience might begin with a tasting of fresh caught fish from Lake Pontchartrain or a local blue crab appetizer, then an alligator sausage tasting and a presentation about our wild-caught Gulf shrimp. The big moment is when we present the shrimp, cooked with local sausage and our special blend of Cajun boil seasonings. Later, we bring out hot towels to clean up and to finish we present a signature dessert and a tasting of New Orleans style chicory cafe au lait.
Please join us for a lovely meal, make some new friends and eat the very best shrimp in the world!
