detlef Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Did anyone mention a muffelatta at Central Grocery? If not, shame on all of us because that is one effing delicious sammy. Drink a sazerac from good bar. That means, if you have to scream your order to the bartender, you're in the wrong bar for a sazerac, because it's a drink you have to make, not just pour. But it's an effing delicious drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darin3 Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I'll be attending a BP in New Orleans over the weekend, and have been using this topic as a pretty good guide on what to eat and see while there. I think Friday night we'll be getting bloody mary's at Igors, eating dinner at Pat O's (hurricanes too), taking in the sights at Rick's, maybe playing some cards at Harrah's. Saturday brunch at Cafe Du Monde, lunch at Port of Call (with a monsoon). We'll be leaving in the evening, but not sure how late. My reason for bumping this topic is to ask if there might be something more worth doing than what we have tentatively planned? Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Get yourself a hand grenade at one of the Tropical Isles bars on Bourbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seattle LawDawg Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 if i were going, i'd target one of john besh's restaurants. Amen. August is his flagship restaurant and is worth every penny. If you have a car, La Provence across the lake is awesome as well. Now, the hotspots are Bayona, Cochon / Herbsaint, Cuvee, Central Grocery Go to Commanders for the experience, but there's better food in the city.

The Wolf Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 All great suggestions, if you truly want a hidden gem of a Po Boy - go to Domeliese's but I'm not sure if they've reopened yet since that bitch Katrina hit town and ran a few years back. I'd skip the Zephyrs game and spend a short time at Harrahs - plenty more to see in The Big Easy. Never ate there but this place was on a Food Network show last night (The Best Thing I Ever Ate). Shrimp Po Boy looked awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bier Meister Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 very convenient right by audubon park and the roast beef is the bomb. and yes they are now opened. about 4 miles from bourbon, right? i think "convenient" might be relative.

Big F'n Dave Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 if i were going, i'd target one of john besh's restaurants. Looking at August next time we're down. We've done Luke a couple times and it was quite tasty. Go to Commanders for the experience, but there's better food in the city. There may be food "as good" in the city. But in countless trips down there, I've not found any food that's "better." Commander's is about as good as it gets anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
