"Food to a large extent is what holds a society together and eating is closely linked to deep spiritual experiences."
Peter Farb and George Armelagos
'Creole' refers to the descendants of the aristocratic French and Spanish (and some German & Italian) settlers who established New Orleans under Spanish sponsorship in the 1690s. Creole cuisine therefore has a strong European influence (especially French), and also has Native American, West Indian and African influences.
