From the Executive Chef

 

“Since the 1970s, I have worked in the food and beverage industry, starting my career in earnest at the Prince Murat Inn in Baton Rouge. Shortly thereafter, I opened The Rathskeller on Third Street in the same city, and discovered my entrepreneurial spirit. My world exploded! I opened Lafitte’s Landing Restaurant – on a wish and a prayer – in 1978 at the foot of the Sunshine Bridge in Donaldsonville, LA. As I renovated the old home, local legend intimated that it had been the residence of privateer Jean Lafitte, thus the restaurant’s name. In 1983, I opened A Taste of Louisiana restaurants throughout the world, introducing Cajun and Creole cuisine from Japan to Beijing, Hong Kong to Seoul, Bogota to Taiwan, and Rome to Moscow. In my fifty-year culinary odyssey around the globe, nuisance of flavors influenced my palate and crept into my culinary melting pot. Restaurant R’evolution is the epitome of diverse tastes and flavors; the Holy Grail of dining experiences; my magnum opus. Your overture begins.”

 

– Chef John Folse

The Redfish Bienville looking oh so pretty! It tastes even better 🔥

Accompanied by root vegetables, charred lemon beurre blanc and @cajuncaviar. The citrus begonia petals add a touch of vibrancy to this Lafitte’s Landing classic.

You may see mentions of *Lafitte’s Landing classic* across our menu. These dishes are modern takes on original dishes served at @chefjohnfolse very first restaurant, Lafitte’s Landing.

Formerly located in Donaldsonville, La., at the foot of the Sunshine Bridge, the Cajun eatery elevated Louisiana indigenous cuisine. Chef Folse opened the doors in 1978, and sadly closed in 1999 after a fire destroyed the property. Throughout the 80s, he brought “a taste of Louisiana” to Japan, Beijing, Hong Kong. Chef Folse took the honor of being the first non-Italian chef to create the Vatican State Dinner in Rome, in 1989. Most significantly, opening “Lafitte’s Landing East” in Moscow during the Presidential Summit between Ronald Regan and Mikhail Gorbachev.

Our menu today reflects Chef Folse’s humble beginnings, and honors the bounty of Louisiana’s Gulf, swamps and bayous.

Introducing another fall menu star, our Creole Cream Cheese Cheesecake--served with fig jam, rosemary graham streusel, fresh cut figs, burnt honey ganache and rosemary Chantilly.

This deconstructed dessert highlights fresh, locally picked figs and the original Creole Cream Cheese.

Creole cream cheese has gone by many names. In "Cooking in Old Créole Days" (1904), Célestine Eustis and Leonie Penin referred to it as "fromage à la crème." In Acadiana, it was known as "caillé gouté," a term that hints at its curdled texture and sweet-sour flavor. The word “Creole” was added in the early 20th century, reflecting the influence of French, Spanish, and African cultures on Louisiana’s culinary heritage

Chef John Folse traces Creole cream cheese to early French and German settlers, who adapted their farmhouse cheese-making skills to the Louisiana climate. Inspired by techniques for Neufchâtel cheese, these settlers created a creamier version using local resources and adapting to the region`s intense summer heat.

By the late twentieth century, Creole cream cheese nearly vanished due to regional dairy consolidation and milk restrictions. In 1999, Poppy Tooker nominated it for the “Ark of Taste,” securing its legacy as Louisiana’s first entry on the endangered foods list. Thanks to efforts by Tooker, Mauthe’s Dairy, Chef Folse, and grocers like Dorignac’s, Creole cream cheese has remained available, with many regional chefs further popularizing it through cookbooks, shows, and online recipes.

Make your reservation through @resy to indulge in this creamy creation. Dinner service begins at 5 pm, we look forward to welcoming you in!
