St. Augustine Catholic Church

Accidental Cajun Experiences

Accidental Cajun Experiences is an immersive culinary tour led by Chef James Cullen that takes you into the neighborhoods and behind the scenes.

They focus not just on food, but the people and cultures that created it. And they meet them along the way as they tell their stories. Bite into a calas or a praline stuffed beignet and learn the history of the Calas Ladies.

Taste the creole hot sausage from a family who has been making it in the same neighborhood for 125 years. Experience a Friday fish fry at a neighborhood bar that’s been around since 1947. Taste New Orleans like a local with a local.

A leisurely neighborhood walking tour with Accidental Cajun Experuences is the perfect way to spend a day in New Orleans whether you’ve never been or are a frequent visitor. They also offer custom experiences on request, and can connect you with the best New Orleans has to offer.

Chef James is also an award winning photographer, and is happy to add a photography package onto any experience. So next time you’re in New Orleans come see about us. Accidental Cajun Experiences: Culture through Cuisine, Above Ground, Below Sea Level.
