With a happy-go-lucky steamboat aesthetic and more Creole and Cajun dishes than you could wave a washboard at, Tante Zoé's on Crow Street has been the default destination of birthday boys and girls, first-daters and festive families just about forever. Other restaurants have been and gone but this fun and noisy joint has kept on swinging, never altering its winning format of jambalayas, creoles, blackened salmon, Louisiana duck and the rest, with a healthy dollop of bons temps schtick chucked in for good measure. So go on, order yourself a jug of Cajun punch and get stuck into a big bowl of gumbo.
