Fly Away Home: Country Roads Supper Club
"Go Where the Birds Go"
For our March offering, join Country Roads at Maison Madeleine, a historic B&B nestled on the on the shores of gorgeous Lake Martin deep in Acadiana.
Chefs Cody and Samantha Carroll, stars of the new TV show Cajun Aces and our own Small Town Chefs Awards alums (we knew them when!), will provide a multi-course feast, and representatives of Audubon Louisiana will guide guests through some of the finer points of wading bird-appreciation in one of the area's best rookeries. Guests can expect to see herons, egrets, cormorants, and the Roseate Spoonbill (or "Cajun flamingo"), as these birds prepare to nest and rear the next generation of winged wonders.
We've planned a full slate of entertainment to go along with the feast, and you can read our interview with Chef Samantha Carroll here and more about Lake Martin itself here.
Boating tours of Lake Martin, guided by two Audubon Louisiana experts, will begin at 3:45pm for an additional $15. Please select a "Boating Tour" ticket in addition to a General Admission ticket. Cocktail hour begins at 5:30pm; dinner is served at 6:30. Attire is spring Sunday stylish (keep in mind you might be on an open boat touring the rookery!)
Tickets available at bontempstix.com. A portion of the proceeds from "Fly Away Home" benefit Audubon Louisiana. Audubon's mission is to conserve and restore natural ecosystems, focusing on birds, other wildlife, and their habitats for the benefit of humanity and the earth's biological diversity.
