Credeur’s Cajun Cookin’: Go For the Gumbo

April 23, 2015 1:34 pm

If you love the spicy, robust flavors of Cajun cuisine, you’ll flip for Credeur’s Cajun Cookin’. This authentic Cajun cuisine eatery is certainly nothing fancy, but what it lacks in ambiance it more than makes up for in its heaping helpings of tasty seafood and pistolettes.

The Louisiana-born owners prepare everything, from the shrimp po'boy sandwiches to the crawfish étouffée, true to tradition, and all of the meals arrive in large portions in a takeout box so that you can easily take home what you can’t finish in the restaurant. Specials include Cajun favorites that change from day to day, and there are also gumbo soups, jambalaya, and boudin served cafeteria-style in the middle of the casual dining room.

Credeur’s features exposed wooden walls and chalkboard menus that add a bit of down-home charm to the small restaurant, but it’s the tasty Cajun cuisine that will keep you coming back for more!

Challenge Your Brain With the Four Glasses Puzzle

April 16, 2015 1:37 pm

First published in the "Mathematical Games" column in Scientific American magazine way back in 1979, the Four Glasses Puzzle continues to stump even the greatest minds. Using logic skills and mathematical thinking, this word puzzle is meant to improve your reasoning in a fun, challenging way.

The puzzle is also known as the “Blind Bartender’s Problem” because it envisions a fictional bartender. Four glasses are placed on each corner of a square lazy Susan, with some turned upright and some upside down. A blindfolded bartender is then asked to rearrange the glasses so that they are either all facing up or all upside down. The lazy Susan is rotated over and over again, and the same bartender is allowed to feel only two of the glasses after each rotation to determine which to flip over in order to ensure that they are all facing the same way after a finite number of turns. Once they are all facing the same way, a bell rings.

Can you develop an algorithm to ensure that the bell rings after five turns? Check your answer here!
