Gumbo is a soup, usually brown. It can be made with all sorts of meat(s), shellfish, and/or poultry, and may or may not contain okra or tomatoes. It is served with white rice.
I made some jambalaya in Michigan for a bunch of people a few years ago at this giant house I rented on some lake north of Kalamazoo. I laid off the spice and it was a big hit. I'm actually not so fond of jambalaya with shrimp or other water-creatures, it tends to get fishy to me...no matter what.
