Founded in 1791, New Orleans' French Market is the oldest public market in the country. From the Native Americans who brought herbs and spices to African-Americans who brought coffee and pralines, the market has always been a popular trading post. Spanish, French, Italian, German and Caribbean immigrants have all mixed and mingled here to give birth to NOLA's' unique culture.
The variety of foods is really impressive in the French Market. There are different culture foods, a lot of great local cuisine with just about anything made with alligator and crawdads, Jambalaya, Gumbo, healthy food, food booths with fresh fruit or pastries, good, bad and overpriced food there. Get "tastes" from the stores and enjoy your final choices during a Jazz breakfast, listening to the street musicians playing while you shop and eat. The Big Easy's French Market is the place to try all types of food from Louisiana. Anything from gator bites to po' boy ... and try the oysters!
New Orleans' French Market is the place to go for souvenirs, local art, interesting food, people watching and so much more! It is very recommended for local charm and flavor and wonderful people.
