What the creator captured
Insider Food explored the cultural significance of the po'boy, highlighting how local humidity creates the unique texture of the city's signature French bread. Joe and Harry were particularly impressed by the roast beef at Parkway Bakery, which is slow-cooked for 12 hours until it reaches a stew-like consistency. They also delved into the sandwich's history as a free meal provided to striking streetcar workers during the Great Depression.
