  • About

First off, this is not a recipe for traditional Bananas Foster, but it shares some of the same elements and was inspired by the original. The true Bananas Foster was invented in New Orleans at Brennan’s Restaurant in the 1950s. It was named for a regular patron, Richard Foster, whom one would have to assume was quite fond of the preparation. The original dish was (and still is) prepared tableside by the waiter or captain and is most often made for two or more persons. Direc
