For the past 20 years, a festival not to be missed has been Jazz on the Bayou. Held at the Bayou Liberty estate of Gardner and Ronnie Kole, this “backyard festival” has raised more than $1 million dollars for the charities it supports.
Every year, Jazz on the Bayou spotlights many of the area’s top chefs who bring their featured dish to the event for all to enjoy. This year, guests will be treated to the work of such celebrated chefs as John Besh’s La Provence, Paul Prudhomme’s K-Paul’s Louisiana Kitchen, Drago’s Seafood Restaurant, Andrea’s, Trey Yuen, Michael’s Restaurant, LA Pines and Southside Café, just to mention a few. In all more than 30 chefs and their restaurants will be featured over the two days.
