Poisson profit oh boy and yakamein oh yeah okay okay we did a little bit of work in planning our trip we decided to recreate shot-for-shot Homer Simpson's New Orleans food rampage what started out as a fun idea turned into weeks of preparations scoping out restaurant menus for specific dishes procuring the necessary accoutrements and Google Maps that would make Jackson Pollock panic with every step impeccably planned we headed to New Orleans for our long-awaited reunion so boys were here we're here in New Orleans it's been how many years since we were here it's been since 2013 6 to 13 years we're here to celebrate this time last time we were here to work we're actually still here a tremendous amount of things never changed straight off the plane we hopped into our rental minivan to hit all fifty four locations in just a few days confident we had everything we needed to make our way through the city with ease you know you gotta make a sign right you make an R then you look at yourself and go no this is not working but I would rather show up with a valiant effort any day and is that what you called it let's go with yes I don't believe that there's waves outside of Gary barbecue they can make it's a barbecue sandwich feel it feel good we got one last stop boy stur pralines I'm very curious to find out precisely what that is this is a great trick if you ever want to stretch your soup a little bit weave say it's you know the Great Depression or something rice it's too much rice today so we ran into a whole bunch of road speed bumps there so luckily we just squirted super here we're back on track baby we're doing pretty good you see I'm in where we got to go here one two three four five six seven eight okay so we had a few hiccups along the way even with weeks of planning a crew of five and the supportive producers in Nashville that's still to be expected when you're creating something the Internet has never seen before we slept soundly that night knowing it was only the first day of exploring a new frontier what everything okay so we just learned that Katherine neither house neither Houser Khachaturian Vaughn Meader Houser just beat us to do this she posted a video of her recreating this food crawl three days ago so Katherine Katherine hats off you beat us to it we're gonna put a link to your video in the video description below guys go check it out she beat us to it she did a great job and we're gonna see what she went through because we're only like 10 restaurants deep and I'm already stuff the way you guys stuff and while doing our best to stay positive let's just say that all the buzz Katrina and Janine's video was getting stung a little yeah it looks like they're also on at least we'd be the first Americans to complete the challenge and with that completely unimpressive and unwarranted optimism we pressed forward all said we ordered 52 dishes over the course of four days amongst the five of us there that amounted to two and a half dishes per person per day which we greedily devoured stop going to eat something why don't you landing okay they taste very much like the way the coastline smell my favorite sandwich the world it's got like all the sharpness for the olives and tons of cheese tons of salami and Pursuit it's good it's good mmm the cars no good I was saying I'm oddly hungry but we've been going for what about four and a half hours now but somehow I haven't had enough to eat this time yesterday I wanted to kill myself in all of you gonna be rough I'm gonna be wrong all right now you tell me when you're comfortable yeah that look it's looking great that's it great that's the shot happy I'm happy the four days felt like a marathon but they were impossibly fun I remember describing it is the easiest hard thing I've ever done great friends and a great crew certainly helped but there's no way we could have accomplished this without the beautiful welcoming people of New Orleans so thank you to everyone that made this possible all things considered the trip to New Orleans was a huge success it's the craziest thing we've done yet in a pretty long line of crazy things and just like every place that gets a go every person I get to meet every dish I get to try every milestone great and small it's all thanks to you guys you guys have built a community around this channel that's allowed
