" Creole Gumbo is more than a cookbook. It is a history book, a music lesson and a personality profile of great jazzmen." The Today Show

This delicious compilation is cooked with a roux of raconteur Howard Mitcham's wit and served with a side dish of jazz
history and lyrics.As an appetizer, Mitcham traces the development of the cuisine that made New Orleans famous and the history of the people who brought their native cookery to the melting pot that makes New Orleans a living gumbo.
For the main course, he puts together a cornucopia of local delights that are ready to prepare in any kitchen.

A dazzling array of photos, foods, and far-out folklore, spiced up with tidbits of jazz history and lyrics, comprises a seafood cookbook that celebrates the world-famous cookery of New Orleans. Howard Mitcham offers more than 300 enticing dishes, from crab gumbo and shrimp-oyster jambalaya to barbecued red snapper and trout amandine.

Mitcham traces the development of sophisticated Creole cooking and its rambunctious country cousin, Cajun cooking, with innumerable anecdotes, pictures, and recipes. Along the way, he offers a list of substitutes for hard-to-find seafoods, a bibliography, and a guide to the best mail-order seafood markets in New Orleans.

Decent Slim Fit Tux
Color: Midnight Black, Size: Large
This will work. In ordering the tux I don't recall seeing the set advertised as slim fit but it definitely is. My husband is 6'2" and 185 lbs. and is a runner. This suit just fits. The pants are thankfully long enough (he wears a 34/34) and the vest fits well however there doesn't seem to be an inch to spare in the jacket. He says it feels fine on, doesn't feel too snug, so that's all that matters. He needed a tux for a black tie wedding we'll be attending next month and this will fit the bill at a good price for something he'll likely never wear again. Note: the Suit comes folded up in a plastic bag and will need to be pressed before wearing.

Can’t believe it was this cheap! Looked just like the suits friends were paying hundreds of $ for to not even buy but to rent. Would definitely recommend buying from here!

I'm going to be fair on this one
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
TLDR; Ordered one (XL), too tight. Then ordered a size up (XXL), it was ok-ish but the sewing was horrible. Ended it up returning both and I still give them 4 stars (because this review is fair) So to my review: I wanted to like this suit. It had great reviews and it is, in all honesty, not that expensive. When I ordered the first suit (XL) I noticed that the fabric was super cheap but somewhat passable. The jacket did not close at all but the pants fit and they were surprisingly decent-ish. It is a slim fit suit so take it from there... the pants were tight in the leg BUT I did welcome A LOT the fact that comes with an elastic waist so it is pretty adjustable. THAT right there is probably one of my favorite things about this suit. I was on the fence of liking this suit so I thought maybe if I tried a bigger size it would made a difference. So then I ordered an XXL and arrived the next day, great. Tried it and the jacket now fit but the pants were not the best fit of all... don't get me wrong, the elastic waist worked great and it was helpful but I definitely needed a belt for this one. Regardless, upon inspection of the new jacket I noticed that the one side was uneven. In the back, there is a separation between both sides, joined by a thin thread that joins both flaps together. You could tell that one side was longer than the other. I was upset but gave it some thought because this is what happens when you buy these type of things online, you are bound to find some items that may or may not work for you. By the way, it comes with a nice vest (waaaaay too tight regardless the size) and a bowtie, which, in my opinion, just don't bother with this one guys Truth be told, you can get a suit from a brand name retailer (on sale) for about $150- $200 that you might not encounter those QC issues but you might not have the same features as this one. Unfortunately, I don't have the time hoping the next one will be perfect. It has it place in your life. If this is for a kid, prom, maybe a cheap wedding that you have to attend, it has its place given the price and features, but if you are going to use it for a gala event please don't, you will NOT look great.... that is why, even though I had to return both, I still gave it 4 stars and I will be buying a tux separates. More expensive, yes but it will also compliment my look completely. It won't be a one use only. Hope this helps P.S: Shipping has LOTS to be desired!! it comes in THE plastic bag that the suit comes folded in, nothing to protect it from the elements when its delivered, not even a shipping bag!!!. For that alone they will get a 1 Star (but that is on Amazon)
