Bonus Episode - A visit to Brennan's for the art and theatre of Banana's Foster
This special bonus episode comes from the folks at Gravy, a production of the Southern Foodways Alliance. Gravy shares stories of the changing
American South, and in this episode, producer Eve Troeh takes us to Brennan’s, an iconic restaurant in the heart of New Orleans’ French Quarter, where spectacle and tradition come together over a flambé pan. At Brennan’s, servers don’t just deliver dessert; they ignite Bananas Foster tableside in a performance perfected over decades. But behind the fire and flourish is a demanding skillset and an old-school apprenticeship that’s anything but simple. We meet the servers who’ve mastered the flame, and explore how this tableside ritual continues to evoke an era of elegance, even as restaurant culture evolves. For more stories from
the South, follow Gravy wherever you get your podcasts or visit
