Proceeds from Classic Menu Donated to Youth and Community Initiatives

NEW ORLEANS (Oct. 1, 2012) - NOLA, Chef Emeril Lagasse’s funky French Quarter restaurant, turned 20 this year and is celebrating by bringing back a few classic dishes, with proceeds from the special menu benefitting youth- and community-enriching initiatives in the New Orleans area. During the month of October, a portion of proceeds from the throwback menu will be donated to the Emeril Lagasse Foundation, which supports local programs such as the Edible Schoolyard and Café Reconcile and sustains a four-year culinary arts program at the New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts.

“NOLA has experienced an amazing ride in the past 20 years, always maintaining its foundation of high-quality, fresh, local ingredients coupled with excellent customer service,” said Lagasse, owner and executive chef of the restaurant. “With his intuitive culinary talent, Chef Josh is leading NOLA into a new era of New Orleans cuisine, grounded in Creole tradition but-of course-kicked up a notch with slight ethnic twists.”

The month of October NOLA will offer the special menu, including fan-favorites such as the cedar-planked roasted drum, pecan crusted trout and smoked rabbit and andouille etouffée. Guests may also join Tom Fitzmorris at NOLA’s Eat Club dinner on October 9, 7 - 10 p.m.

Opened in 1992 as Lagasse’s second restaurant, NOLA brought the chef’s modern Creole and Acadian cuisine to the heart of the Quarter. Today the restaurant’s kitchen is overseen by Chef Josh Laskay, a native New Orleanian who enjoys blending ethic flavors such as Vietnamese and Southwestern cuisine with Louisiana’s Creole heritage.

Reservations for NOLA Restaurant can be made online at OpenTable.com or by calling (504) 522-6652. View the full menus.
