Merchant* (#275, 9/3/13) – 56
In the quest to eat at every restaurant in New Orleans, I am slowly knocking off a string of lunch stops in the Central Business District. My latest stop was Merchant on Common Street. It’s a very basic lunch stop … Continue reading
C&A Seafood (#274, 8/24/13) – 68
Ventured into a bit of a shady area on a Saturday afternoon when I wasted too much time to be able to go to Crabby Jack’s or Avery’s for a shrimp po-boy (they both close early). I have been driving … Continue reading
Empire State Deli (#273, 8/22/13) – 55
I made my first lunch sojourn to One Shell Square – the tallest building in Louisiana (51 stories, 697 feet; it was also the first Southern skyscraper to surpass 200 meters). It has a bunch of little lunch stops in … Continue reading
Barcadia* (#272, 8/15/13) – 62
Barcadia was a tough decision for me. Does it count for my list or not? Technically, I say no chains; and Barcadia has two original locations in Dallas/Fort Worth. But, I’m going with it, I see chains as things like … Continue reading
Lucky Rooster* (#271, 8/6/13) – 60
The Lucky Rooster is a new place very close to work, so I was excited to try, hoping it would fit in as a good lunch stop. It also has a fun name with an excellent logo and a fun … Continue reading
La Casita (#270, 7/30/13) – 58
The “brand new, snazzy little taqueria on Julia Street” is La Casita. And it’s…pretty good. Nothing great, but I like the “snazzy little” part of their description. It’s a tiny place with a tiny kitchen, but the key thing I … Continue reading
SoBou* (#269, 7/24/13) – 62
Dropped in at SoBou for the first time – if you’re trying to find it, it’s located just south of Bourbon Street in the W Hotel on Chartres St. I just went for lunch and it was decent, not sure … Continue reading
Mia’s Balcony* (#268, 7/19/13) – 32
I’ve driven by Mia’s Balcony many times as it has a great location on St. Charles Ave. Finally, I made my way there (primarily due to a group-on). To start with, Mia’s basically gets destroyed on Yelp. It almost made … Continue reading
Baie Rouge* (#267, 7/10/13) – 66
I had a bit of a craving for a club sandwich and remembered reading about a new place in a Yelp email, so tracked it down. Baie Rouge had a ton of good reviews on Yelp, so even more appealing. … Continue reading
Avery’s Po-Boys* (#266, 6/24/13) – 76
I had heard some rumors about an outstanding po-boy shop on Tulane Avenue, but I had no idea where it was. Well, it turns out Avery’s Po-Boys are not far from my office at all. It’s very close to all … Continue reading
