I've been very excited by the return of our favorite Louisiana hot sauce to grocery store shelves. Baumer Foods' facility on Tulane Avenue in New Orleans suffered so much damage they have decided to rebuild in nearby Reserve, La. Until they are at 100 percent this summer, they have been working with manufacturers in other parts of the country. A press release said they are in touch with employees and there will be jobs for all able to return to work at the new plant. They produce quite a few sauces, etc. We just love Crystal. Internet sales aren't up just yet, but I'm adding them to my Shop N.O. list out of pure excitement. On another New Orleans note, my dear friend tipped me off to a Newsweek article March 20 that listed several re-opened restaurants and several more intending to be open by Jazz Fest. The story offered a link for updates. If you have a a favorite something New Orleans please send a link to add to my list. Thanks!
