MaMou Opens In New Orleans’ French Quarter

A new French restaurant has opened its doors in New Orleans’ French Quarter. MaMou, from Executive Chef Tom Branighan and sommelier Molly Wismeier, began serving customers on Nov. 18, 2022.

The Rampart eatery envisions itself as a restaurant that leans into the city’s rich French history, which manifests itself in its decor and wine selection.

“What would contemporary Creole cuisine be like today if New Orleans had spent more time under the French flag? What if French nouvelle cuisine had more of an influence on traditional Louisiana flavors? MaMou explores this possibility course by course,” the restaurant says on its Facebook page.

“We want to invest in the culture of the French Quarter,” says Branighan. “Molly and I have been working on this vision for a few years and are excited for MaMou to highlight the city’s rich history and become a part of this vital neighborhood.”
