Season’s Eatings: A Feast for Fall and Winter

Welcome to fall and winter on The Northshore, a season made for gathering, festing, exploring and, above all, savoring. There’s no better time to visit than now as the state of Louisiana celebrates the 2025 Year of Food, and this issue of The Northshore visitor guide is bursting with flavor.

Throughout the issue, we’re spotlighting the culinary experiences that make The Northshore a cherished destination. From freshcaught Louisiana seafood and comforting Southern classics to the creativity of chefs putting their own spin on local ingredients, we have something for every appetite. Don’t miss the Culinary Tour on page 34 and start making your reservations.

Beyond the table, this season offers endless opportunities to enjoy all that makes The Northshore unforgettable. Stroll charming historic districts and take a perfect picture at one of our many murals, browse local shops for holiday finds, take in breathtaking waterfront views or explore the scenic Tammany Trace by bicycle. For our motorcyclists, The Northshore’s scenic roads are brimming with sights. Out on the water, there’s still plenty of time for fishing, paddling or simply floating your cares away under sunny skies.

We hope this guide becomes your go-to companion for making the most of your time here. For even more ideas, visit VisitTheNorthshore.com and listen to All The Waves, our podcast sharing the local voices and stories that bring our community to life.
