Three Sides of Emeril

The chef with the megawatt smile claims a nationwide empire, but his restaurants started in New Orleans. Come taste where it all began.

By Warner McGowin / Photography Jennifer Davick

Certain icons make New Orleans different. Hot jazz on the street corner. Beignets as light as air, paired with coffee that kicks. Bourbon Street in all its rough-hewn glory. And, of course, Emeril Lagasse.

Twenty-five years after arriving in the Crescent City, the man who practically invented the concept of the celebrity chef is a household name and the head of a culinary empire. Luckily for visitors here, he maintains three restaurants in New Orleans, each with its own identity.

“Three Sides of Emeril” is from the May 2008 issue of Southern Living. Read the full article and watch an audio slide show of Emeril Lagasse on SouthernLiving.com.
