Rollicking Louisiana crawfish boils have arrived in the East Bay. Here’s where to find one before the year ends

When Marin-County native Aaron Salit first visited New Orleans 12 years ago, he was deep in the bustle and grind of the fine dining restaurant world. As someone who has always enjoyed live music and food, the city’s crawfish boil culture drew him in instantly. Before he knew it, he was returning year after year to attend boils, eventually making crawfish boils a birthday tradition of his own, bringing friends and family together for the same communal experience he had come to love in Louisiana.

When Chen scheduled pop-ups at local restaurants, the lines would stretch, seemingly endlessly, all the way around the block.
