Actor Roger Guenveur Smith and his Inside the Creole Mafia writing partner Mark Broyard both penned memorial tributes yesterday to the dearly departed Harold Legaux, the son of Harold & Belle’s founders who operated the Creole restaurant until his recent death. The two recall the man’s legacy and funeral service, which reminds Smith that Legaux’s “continued influence…is more than culinary.” [L.A. Forward]
