Need a place to eat?
I have a goal to eat at every restaurant in New Orleans. Only Orleans Parish restaurants count (if I include Metairie, etc., it would be truly impossible, this is just close to impossible). My last count had about 600 restaurants total – I don’t include chains (except for now and then) and have a semi-rule that to be a restaurant, it has to have more table seats than bar seats. All of this was inspired by Ray Cannata, a pastor who moved to NOLA after Katrina and proceeded to eat at every restaurant in town. The documentary, The Man Who Ate New Orleans, was my primary inspiration to tally these places.
On a side note, I once had one of the largest private collections of Underberg in North America and I am very good at parallel parking.
In the list below, an asterisk means the restaurant is no longer with us - as of October 2, 2023, I have 193 defunct restaurants on my list.
Made my first visit to Tamarind (in the Hotel Modern on Lee Circle) and just dropped in for lunch. Hopefully they’re not relying on the lunch crowd for making money, because there were two of us there until almost one, when a couple more tables were taken. The food was decent, vietnamese-french fusion, I guess. Egg rolls and the like. Not memorable, doubt I’ll be going back; and doubt it will be there much longer.
Edit: This ended up closing in December of 2012.
