“New Orleans has shaped us. It has challenged and embraced us. And in return, we offer our crafts as thanks. Our tribute to this place reflects a relationship that is deeply personal, often spiritual, and always passionate.”—Brian Landry

“I’ve always felt that music and food are part of the same language—two expressions of the same instinct to nourish, to connect, to transform.”—Peter Harris

In a love letter to the city, native New Orleanians Brian Landry and Peter Harris pay homage in Rhythm & Roux to the food and music that raised them.
