Yes, details were finalized a bit late, but hey, I can only work on so many things at once. One of the perks of being a regular NOLA Eats supporter is you get first dibs on event availabilities. Thanks to those who have already sent their RSVP and payment! For those who would like to join in, I am maxing this event out at 30 guests, so get your RSVP in ASAP.
Your $15 gets you hot, boiled crawfish with the fixings, such as corn and potatoes. It also covers the cost of paper products, boil ingredients and extras, like cups, napkins, sodas and seasonings. If you are a vegetarian, but would still like to mingle, feel free to bring your own dish. This event is BYOB, and if you would like to bring any sides or snacks to share, be my guest. Our gracious hosts for this year’s party are Lindsay of ScoopAdventures and her husband Keith, so once I receive payment, you will receive the address to the private location in the Irish Channel. They have a lovely back yard, so we will be very comfortable with the accommodations, unlike a public space (won’t miss those hot, stinky bathrooms!).
Payments can be sent to me via PayPal at NOLA.Eats@gmail.com. When you send the payment, please include your name and how you heard about the event. I will use that email address to send you the location details, so if you don’t check that account, please make certain to include an alternative method for me to reach you. I’ve got a handy event widget over to the right of my website you can use to instantly add the event to your Google Calendar, if you like.
Disclaimer: For those new to NOLA Eats events, I don’t make money from them. It’s usually quite the contrary. I do it because, for six years, I’ve been able to spend time with people I’ve grown to adore. I budget carefully for events when asking for pre-payments, so if there’s anything left over after buying boil necessities, I would be happy to split and refund the difference. I truly work to make the cost as low as possible for my guests to make events more appealing. Unfortunately, if you RSVP for the crawfish boil and are unable to attend or change your mind, I will be unable to refund your money after I have ordered the crawfish. Any refunds made prior to the ordering will be minus fees as set by PayPal.
I am very excited to host this event! For those of you who are able to join us, I will be making several ice cream flavors for dessert! Hope to see you there!
I was hoping you would say that
As if I wasn’t excited enough… ice cream!
Thanks for hosting, Lindsay, and thanks for putting this boil together, Leslie. I’m really looking forward to it.
I’m excited about you attending
Wait crawfish AND ice cream? Okay now I’m definitely going.
I’ve only had one of Lindsay’s ice creams, but, man, it was very good.
will this boil happen rain or shine? only 30 peeps how many are you at so far?
Well, we didn’t actually discuss what will happen if it rains. I’ll pose that question and see what we come up with. As of now, it appears that we will have nice weather.
There is a enough room in the house for 30 people if it rains, we have a small awning outback so the crawfish could probably still be boiled. Rain or shine!!
as of Friday morning:
May 2 Sunday
Clouds giving way to sun . Highs in the low 80s and lows in the mid 60s. 10% chance of precipitation.
Small crustaceans will be boiled to death in spice and garlic flavored water and humans will crack their exoskeletons and consume their insides, repeatedly!
