Réveillon at Couvant

Réveillon dinners are a cherished holiday tradition in New Orleans, originating from the city’s French Creole roots. Traditionally, these lavish meals were served late on Christmas Eve after Midnight Mass, with families gathering to break their day-long fast. The word “Réveillon” means “awakening,” reflecting the spirit of the celebration.

Today, Réveillon dinners have evolved into festive feasts offered by New Orleans restaurants throughout December. This winter, indulge in this can’t-miss prix fixe menu, offering a modern twist on a classic holiday tradition.
