Red Beans Comin!Lundi Gras Parade Shows a Little Leg-umes For most of New Orleans, tomorrow is the big day of as Carnival culminates with the giant Fat Tuesday celebration. But for Devin Meyers and the 60 members of the Red Beans and Rice parade, today's 2 p.m. step-off will be the big bash. Do You Know What it Beans?Walking Krewe Grew Up From the DirtGreek names, crowded neutral grounds and route maps that seemed etched in stone are the stuff of our collective Carnival experience. But, snaking through the backstreets, walking parades that are fewer in number - but no less dedicated to the traditions of costuming and whimsy - dot the landscape as the city counts down to Fat Tuesday.
Formed two years ago, the Red Beans and Rice Parade will set off on a Lundi Gras journey through the Marigny, Treme, the French Quarter, and Frenchmen St. this year.
