The Roux Life is a celebration of South Louisiana food, culture, and community blending Cajun and Creole traditions, chef stories, local flavor, and the life around Chef Blaine’s table. 

“As a South Louisiana chef, I believe great food is about more than flavor — it’s about creating connection and celebration. The Roux Life is where I share not only where I love to eat in the New Orleans area, but also how I incorporate local influences into my catering and private chef services. You’ll discover everything from event menu inspiration and entertaining ideas to restaurant recommendations and stories from the kitchen.

Whether you’re planning your next catered event, looking for inspiration for your own dinner table, or simply exploring the best food experiences New Orleans has to offer, pull up a chair and stay awhile — I guarantee a good time.” -Chef Blaine
