Our Story
Ok, so i'm told everyone has a story...here's mine!
From Grandma’s Kitchen to Mine
My grandma Sadie was the greatest chef I’ve ever known, teaching me more than culinary school ever could. She could raise, slaughter, and cook anything with ease. I blend my Miss-Lou roots, Creole touch, and country soul into every dish, making food that’s soulful, bold, flavorful, and full of heart. Cooking is a reflection of my life, and gumbo shows it best. I cook because it’s my passion and there’s nothing else I’d rather do.
Simply Stated: We Feed the Masses
That's why I'm here. Looking for great gumbo in Birmingham, we are making authentic Creole food in Birmingham. That's what I love. That's what I do well, and I can throw a mean cocktail at ya, you know, if you're the drinking type. But like our slogan says: "If it looks like soup, and it taste like soup, THEN, THAT AIN'T GUMBO!"
Meet Our Team
Our team is the heart behind every bowl of gumbo and every Creole dish we serve. We’ll be sharing their stories, skills, and passion soon. Stay tuned to get to know the people who bring flavor, care, and soul to every meal at Gumbo to Geaux.
