This past weekend, Lafayette Square filled up with food and music at the fifth-annual New Orleans Seafood Festival. The musical lineup included local favorites, including the Stooges Brass Band, Papa Grows Funk, and, as seen in the photos, Kermit Ruffins and Jon Cleary. In addition to the many local restaurant vendors selling seafood and other bites to eat, the festival also included celebrity chef cooking demos, including Chris Lusk of Cafe Adelaide and Brian Landry of the Louisiana Seafood Board in the photos below.
