On Thursday, August 17th, Stroll Le Triomphe guests were treated to a unique trip around the culinary world in a single evening.  Cajun Food Tour’s Around the World in Acadiana taste tour affords guests a delectable glimpse at the wide variety of delicious international cuisines available right here in Lafayette. 
   
 For anyone looking to add a little spice- pun definitely intended- to their culinary routine, Around the World in Acadiana by Cajun Food Tours is easily the most efficient, comfortable, and fun way to explore the local-but-not-so-local dining options.  Each tour consists of four stops where guests not only sample, but also learn about, a variety of Asian, Latin, Mediterranean, and European cuisines, each carefully prepared to broaden horizons and whet appetites. 
   
 Cajun Food Tours owner Marie Ducote-Comeaux is the best company on her carefully planned tours, and she works closely with local restaurants to make sure guests’ taste buds enjoy their journey around the globe with every food tour experience.  But for Around the World in Acadiana, it’s seven-year Cajun Food Tours guide Jay Steiner who usually escorts and such was the case on this night. Jay is a proud life-long native of Lafayette; blend that with his extensive and passionate knowledge of world history and how that history has determined the development of different foods around the globe, and you’ve got, in Marie’s words, a “priceless” host for just such a tour as this. Indeed it was clear from start to finish that Jay’s enthusiasm for his hometown, and specifically how its rich culinary tradition has welcomed and influenced others from around the world, is well-paired with Marie’s. 
   
 The evening’s itinerary included stops at Patacon Latin Cuisine, Blu Basil, Tabouleh Lebanese Cuisine, and Antoni’s Italian Café, and each of the hosts hit the target, providing delicious courses that left everyone impressed and eager for more.
