New Orleans is among the greatest culinary destinations in America, and perhaps the world. The region is renowned for its Creole cuisine, and visitors from across the globe flock to the city to experience one-of-a-kind dishes like gumbo, jambalaya, dirty rice and, of course, beignets for dessert.
New Saints quarterback Derek Carr, however, apparently wasn’t interested in any of that.
Carr, who last week signed a four-year, $150 million deal with New Orleans, told reporters on Saturday that the first place he and his wife stopped for a meal upon arriving in their new home was not a landmark establishment like Brennan’s or Cafe Du Monde. Instead, the Carrs opted for a more familiar choice: Chipotle.
