What do you do when National Crawfish Day falls on a ? You host one heck of a party - Frischhertz 8th Annual Crawfish Cook-Off.

The competition was heated as each department battled for the paddle and more importantly, the coveted titles of Boil Master and Side Master 2026. It was a day packed with great fun, creative culinary creations, an abundance of crawdads and quite a bit of smack talk. Congrats to all of the teams and this year’s champions. The Sparky Crawdaddies (Service Department) walked away with a Side Master victory and Shock & Boil (Accounting/Administration) took home the Boil Master bragging rights.

Many thanks to our MSY friends from HGBM for serving as the official judges.

Happy !

Well represented at the Crescent City Classic!

Katrina. 20 years ago. This is our story. What’s yours?

When the waters rose, and evacuation became mandatory, our team secured properties and evacuated. Mother Nature separated us, but only by miles and only for a moment.

Authorities quickly called Frischhertz back to the ravaged city, and our team was led by the National Guard through harm’s way to safeguard many of NOLA’s landmarks and buildings including the New Orleans Museum of Art.

Our office on Toulouse was under water, but luckily our server was upstairs and we relocated to Harahan to swiftly continue rebuilding our lives and our beloved city. It’s what we do best. Our team brings projects to light and often times, we bring them “back” to light.

Today we not only remember the devastation that Hurricane Katrina brought to the Greater New Orleans area and beyond in 2005 but also the wake of resilience left in her path.
