Shreveport-Bossier’s Black-owned restaurant scene is rich in culture and history. The recipes for these spicy, golden, Shreveport-style stuffed shrimp served at Eddie's Restaurant, C & C Café, and Orlandeaux's Café date back to the early 1920s. Hosea “Big D” Levingston has been serving fall-off-the-bone ribs and other smoked meat at Big D's Bar-B-Que for more than 35 years. Anthony's Steak & Seafood, known for its creamy potatoes au gratin and well-seasoned steaks, has been in business for nearly 30 years.  Check out the delicious rolled ice cream treats at Yum Yum Dessert Bar. Have you experienced a traditional Fulani “dine on a mat” dinner? RNL Authentics will come to your location and prepare traditional Fulani and Sierra Leonean dishes. Don’t forget to try the official meal of northwest Louisiana at Chef Hardette Harris’ Us Up North Kitchen. Dine on the fresh vegetables and food that are either grown here or come from the area’s many lakes and bayous.
