美國南方紐奧良美食
One ref: 嘉郡(CAJUN)美食； also 卡真调料,
I think I would go with 美國南方紐奧良美食, perhaps with the phonetic before or after, to ensure people know what I'm talking about.
Do NOT use "nan fang feng wei"-- it's wrong!! Cajun cooking is NOT the same as Southern cooking. Cajun is only from Louisiana/New Orleans and reflects French influence as well as elements from the Caribbean.
