Plenty to do at the Vieux-To-Do!

BestofNewOrleans.com (News and Classifieds by Gambit)’s newsletter sent Flipside Florida a reminder of the collective festival known as Vieux-To-Do:

The annual Louisiana Seafood Festival returns this weekend to the Old U.S. Mint, part of a three-festival lineup known collectively as the Vieux-To-Do. The Louisiana Cajun-Zydeco Festival  provides the tunes with a lineup of bands from south Louisiana while the adjacent French Market holds its popular Creole Tomato Festival. w

Flipside Florida now reminds itself that it published a couple of articles about the 2nd annual Vieux-To-Do festival last year here and here.  And also wrote about the inaugural festival the year before that (but the Jacksonville Business Journal doesn’t allow other sites to publish their articles even if you wrote the story).

Anyway,  the YatPundit’s blog is on Gambit‘s  blogroll (scroll all the way down because it’s in alphabetical order). Flipside Florida had mentioned Mr. and Mrs. YatPundit’s opinion about Chef Paul Prudhomme’s Louisiana Red Pepper sauce in an article about Disney World and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival Foundation‘s Jazz Fest which is here.

Incidentally, the NOJHFF coordinates the music for The Louisiana Cajun-Zydeco Festival so the musical talent is very talented.

Veiux To Do is Friday June 11 through Sunday June 13th

Come on down!   The weather’s fine …

Lea Sinclair, the director of communications  for New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corporation wants everyone to know that New Orleans has not been affected by the tragedy in the Gulf. (In terms of tourism, that is). She said the biggest problem that New Orleans tourism is having is that  tourists are afraid to come to New Orleans (but the oil spill isn’t anywhere near the Crescent City).

And the greatest seafood in the world is still found in New Orleans!

Bon Appetit!
