I watched another video, besides this one, reviewing the Mardi Gras food. The other video was three hours long and the whole video was so slow and just them complaining the entire time. This video was a breathe of fresh air! Everything I need in a review video, fantastic job! Everyone in this video was so positive and actually made me excited to go to Mardi Gras at Universal!! Thank you all for doing such a good review, I hope you get the appreciation you deserve!!!

Yes I saw a good bit of the other video and I was just like… this is way too long and some good info but also way too much info

Thanks for the great coverage of all the food!! We only have 1 day to visit this time for us for MG so going to have to be selective on the food sampling!

Just saw the levettes throwing beads in the parade it was great

It all looks so good! And I appreciate the honest reviews. But who decided to give Trevor almost all the hard to pronounce foods?! 😆 You did great Trevor!

The okonomiyaki pronunciation was pretty spot on! The seafood flavor may come from the katsuobushi (dried tuna flakes).

Hi Antje! Thanks for joining us in February! Dates for next year have not been set yet.

You really did try everything! Wow. I wish I'd had the chance to eat more of the food, but I would say I lucked out with a lot of good things.

Were the crab filled beignets a return item this year?

You're a champ for the octopus, because I would never! Otherwise, almost all of these look so amazing and delicious, I think I'd love the fried green tomato po boy because I am addicted to fried green tomatoes! Oh, and that corn, I now need to figure out how to make it at home! Cheers to a great video!

Present day in Mobile, Alabama was part of Louisiana/New Orleans at the time that Mardi Gras started ( Hello Louisiana Purchase lol) so to say that New Orleans is the birthplace of Mardi Gras is actually correct. ⚜️

No it's not. Mobile is the birthplace. Mobile was established before New Orleans and were already celebrating Mardi Gras.

@@bamacapt115 and so I’m not accused of being biased - from the Alabama website: “The town of Mobile and its fort served as the capital of French Louisiana until mid-1711, when the settlement was relocated to the present site of Mobile, Alabama.” What was known as Mobile back then was in Louisiana adjacent to New Orleans. Present day Mobile is not even in the same location

As someone that lived in Puerto Rico my whole life, that alcapurria looks terrible! 10$? Those cost like 1.50 to 2$!

Those indian options you can get at nearly any indian restaurant just fyi lol. As an Indian person who is going tomorrow I'm curious to see how they'll measure up to what I get at the restaurants around here.

7 minute egg just means that it was boiled for 7 minutes which indicates how soft/hard boiled it is, for example, a 6-minute egg has an almost runny yoke

Hey there!

Mobile is where the first party took place, and New Orleans is where it first became an official celebration. I randomly got to meet you at the beginning of February by where the Tribute store used to be located. I jotted down your name on my phone to check out your YT channel. Your recommendations to be more the Columbian and Indonesian spots were fantastic. It was lovely to meet you! Also, as a New Orleans native, I must say that going to Universal for Mardi Gras is a much more family-friendly experience. It's actually where we take our kids instead of downtown.

Not true. Mobile was celebrating Mardi Gras before New Orleans was even established.
