If your calendar still thinks February is a calm, responsible month, it’s about to get humbled.

Mardi Gras is rolling into Mouth of the South and we’re doing it the only way we know how — loud, scratch-made, and with just enough chaos to make Tuesday feel like a terrible idea in the best way.

This isn’t a plastic-beads-and-sad-nachos situation. This is gumbo that actually took time. Jambalaya that doesn’t apologize for itself. Étouffée that makes people stop talking mid-sentence. The kind of food that reminds you why Louisiana never needed permission to be bold.

And the drinks? They’re not here to support your productivity. They’re here to help you forget you ever pretended to enjoy small talk at work.

Mardi Gras at MOTS isn’t about pretending to be fancy or playing dress-up Cajun. It’s about honoring where this food comes from — real kitchens, real recipes, real people who cook like they give a damn. The dining room gets louder, the tables get messier, and suddenly everyone remembers that Tuesday doesn’t have to suck.

So skip the couch. Skip the “maybe next year.” Grab your people and come celebrate Fat Tuesday the way it’s meant to be celebrated — slightly irresponsible, extremely full, and smiling way too hard for a weeknight.
