ABOUT FRITAI
The Fritai stall at the St. Roch Market was an amazing start. They began cooking food influenced by the cultural roots of Charly’s Haitian background, while adding some inventive twists to celebrate the local people, ingredients and flavors of New Orleans. Today, Fritai is one of St. Roch Market’s most successful stalls—having held fundraisers for Haiti, as well as garnering a number of accolades including Zagat’s 30 under 30, Eater National Young Guns, and numerous television appearances including Charly’s winning Food Network’s Chopped. Chef Charly is constantly creating and adding to the colorful picture of New Orleans while focusing on his history and the people of New Orleans who helped him become who he is today.
