If you want the secret to the Upperline's fried green tomatoes with shrimp remoulade or Dooky Chase's gumbo des herbes, check out 86 Recipes New Orleans, a box of recipe cards that showcase great Crescent City restaurants. Edited by former 225 food writer Lorin Gaudin, each card in the collection features a map, snappy photo, directions, cook times and wine pairings for a particular mouthwatering specialty for which each place is famous. Cochon's card tells you how to confect James Beard award-winner Chef Donald Link's barbecued pork ribs, while the card dedicated to Café Maspero gives away its muffuletta secrets. There are 86 Recipe collections for New York and San Francisco, too, but organizers are hoping the one on New Orleans will remind America that Crescent City restaurants are back in business. This is a great gift for anyone who loves eating out or preparing NOLA-inspired fare.
