Slowly savor the dripping richness of a brown sugar rum brulee while your friend sips a Louzziana Sweet or unsweetened Tea or a Sauterne dessert wine.
Admire the tasteful decorations and furnishings as you sit in the Acadiana Restaurant at 901 New York Avenue in Washington DC. This is the life. This is also the only restaurant serving Louisiana food in the capital city.
The Acadiana Restaurant is in a unique building. The modern structure is all steel and glass. The Acadiana, however, softens the interior to reflect the Acadian image their cuisine reflects. The main dining room features vaulting windows casually and elegantly draped with soft fabric. The main purpose of the restaurant is to strive to provide its customers with the very best of Louisiana food. Sampling for the various ethnic regions of that state, they create a menu appealing to that sector of society who is interested in expanding their dining experiences and teasing their taste buds.
Go for lunch, and stay for dinner or dessert at the Acadiana. Lunch offerings may include scrumptious gumbo or seafood gratin, jambalaya, catfish or crab cakes. For supper, you can select from other seafood entrees including New Orleans' style barbecue shrimp, rockfish and redfish.
The Acadiana provides its customers and students with unique opportunities. The restaurant allows them the chance to take part in special learning experiences and cooking classes. These include how to throw a Louisiana style patio party with a crab boil. People can also take part in a "Boil Throw Down" and Crawfish Boils."
