Gumbo

The vision of this Soul Food restaurant is from two chefs: Keith Corbin and Daniel Patterson. The menu is influenced by traditional West African food and California cuisine fused with Southern flavors. Every plate that is brought to the table is packed with a steep soulful taste of our ancestral roots. The goal of Alta is to celebrate the inclusivity of a new generation of rising culinary talent. Let’s start with the appetizers and then lead into the tasty main entrees.

Every bite was mouth-watering from the spicy herb sauce to the light sweet creamy texture of the Grits to the earthy broth of the Gumbo and finally, the smokey flavor of the collard greens more than satisfied our tummy’s. We even had the chance to chat with Chef Keith Corbin, about the splendid food he had prepared for us. I’m going back without a doubt, especially for the Black-Eyed Pea Fritters, and try the Pineapple-Coconut Upside Down Cake.

A GUMBO that is what Louisiana is. We’re talkin’ a lil bit of each culture, we’re talkin’ a blend of various ethnic backgrounds to include: African, European, Native American and Caribbean, which later evolves into Creole and Cajun cuisine. We’re talkin’ spices. The spices that were attached to the cultures’ to each of these individual apron strings. Using these spices during the summer months will wake up your tastebuds with a burst of flavor on a fresh piece of Tilapia.

Hello Fresh has created a Louisiana-Style Tilapia dish, which includes a few simple ingredients for a friendly budget: Tilapia, Yukon Gold Potatoes, Carrots and Red cabbage. There is nothing better than pan fried fish. a touch of OLD BAY Seasoning and a fresh side of coleslaw with family and friends. As the people of Louisiana say, “LIVE TO EAT” and remember to respect the heritage of the food you eat.
