A Spicy, Boozy New Orleans Party Menu

The biggest football game of the year is in New Orleans: a city of lights, of tipsy streets, of slushees, of fried food and jambalaya. Can you think of a better reason to throw a party this Sunday?

The food of New Orleans lends itself perfectly to (hopefully) celebratory football-watching. So choose a gumbo, an oyster preparation and a spicy cocktail, and invite your friends. You've got an awesome Sunday ahead of you.
