Chef Landry Comedy Show

Chef Byron S. Landry was born in Lake Charles, Louisiana. He grew up with the traditional Sunday meal in a large family and was interested in how his grandmother could feed so many. He began to cook when his mother gave him his first cook book at the age of nine.

His debut as a professional began at the age of nineteen when he prepared a Cajun banquet for one hundred and forty five fraternity brothers at Harding University in Searcy, Arkansas. After graduating from college, he spent the next fifteen years in the food service industry.

When he opened his own catering company he was able to develop his famous recipes. In 1990, Chef Landry began catering conventions and found that adding one special ingredient would generate miles of smiles. That ingredient was comedy, which launched his nationally known Chef Landry’s Comedy Cajun Dinner Shows. This was so successful that clients began requesting him to present his show, even if he wasn’t catering the event. He now travels around the country presenting the show at fairs, festivals, conventions, corporate events, and even fundraisers.
