| 2. Huckster, but it's not completely an either/or situation |

He's some of both, but mostly huckster.

Granted that it has been awhile since I have, but my recollection tells me that the two genius-huckster categories are not mutually exclusive.

| 4. Emeril - an evil genius huckster. |

But he ain't no New Orleans chef like the old days. He's no different than Justin Wilson (the guy from Mississippi who had that very bad, fake Cajun accent). Yes, I have eaten Emeril's food, cooked personally by him, but it is NOT Cajun cookin' like you'd find in Breaux Bridge.
He's a good cook. That's all. There are thousands of better cooks, most of whom are unknown and live in the city as well as the bayou. For instance, there's a gas station outside Lafayette that has the best boudin I've ever had, made by a little old lady. Emeril doesn't even come close to her cooking, but he charges 20x more.
