Interview with Chef Drake Leonards at Chef John Besh’s Lüke Restaurant at Hilton New Orleans, Louisiana!

By Mijune

Dinner at Lüke’s is just like the hotel in style, a balance of historic and modern. They have all the Louisiana Creole specialties and “tourist staples”, but refined versions of them. It’s updated comfort food and recipes that still pay tribute to original dishes and culture.

Follow Me Foodie to Kansas City, Missouri! (Restaurants, food and must tries)

By Mijune

Even if you have to taxi, LC’s Bar-B-Q is a must-do in Kansas City. This is worth flying for, or at the very least it was worth the 3-3.5 hour road trip from St. Louis… which is what I did. I seriously have meat dreams about this place and I long for the day I can go back and stuff my face in this smoky delicious saucy Kansas City barbeque. Come to mama!

Follow Me Foodie to Missouri! (St. Louis – food and travel)

By Mijune

First stop: St. Louis! I pretty much had 24 hours to eat and see as much as I could, so needless to say, I need to revisit; however I didn’t do too bad with the limited time given. From barbeque to fine dining, there’s so much more to St. Louis than the Gateway Arch, The Cardinals… and Nelly.

Follow Me Foodie to New York: Restaurants, bars, food & drinks worth flying for!

By Mijune

This list will continue to grow for sure. It’s New York, arguably “the best” food city in North America. I really dislike “best of” lists and I think “the best food city” is dependent on what kind of food you want, but generally many would agree that New York has it all – and they do.

Happy National Fried Chicken Day! 10 “Must Try” Fried Chickens!

By Mijune

I’m not obsessed with finding “the best fried chicken”, but it’s nostalgic even though I didn’t grow up with it. Comfort food will always have its place in my heart and it might just slow it down as well. On that note, here are 10 of my favourite fried chickens I’ve had since starting Follow Me Foodie.
