Growing up so close to New Orleans meant its flavors and accents spread over us through the radio, the TV, and the social culture. Traveling there from Mississippi was a kind of pilgrimage, Route 66-style, across a string of swampland drawbridges over the Pearl River through the Rigolets to the Chef Menteur highway. It’s always had a grip on my imagination.
