NO-L.A.
The heart of Los Angeles’ Creole community is arguably the classic Jefferson Park restaurant Harold & Belle’s, open since 1969. While you can order gumbo and jambalaya there any old day, this Saturday’s crawfish boil and block party is a once-a-year fête you shouldn’t miss ($30). If mud bugs aren’t your thing, there will be other New Orleans-style favorites to eat too. Harold & Belle’s, 2920 W. Jefferson Blvd., Mid-City; 323-735-9023 or haroldandbellesrestaurant.com
