Maurepas Foods* (#231, 10/20/12)
For some reason, this Maurepas Foods place in the Bywater had been rattling around in my head for awhile, so I figured I better get out there and see what it’s all about. Upon arrival, I realized that I had … Continue reading
Sarita’s (#230, 10/19/12)
Checked in at another Freret Street stop for lunch – Sarita’s Grill – a Latin fusion place. Apparently, Sarita’s has been going on Freret Street for a long time – well before all of the hip, new places have come … Continue reading
Bacchanal (#229, 10/13/12)
Bacchanal is defined as a drunken or riotous celebration…well, this may not have been exactly that, but it is a pretty cool New Orleans place. It has been open for a while in the Bywater, but just recently added a … Continue reading
Jazzy Wings* (#228, 10/12/12)
Music in Ya Mouth! Finally! Number one, Jazzy Wings has the top motto/theme of any New Orleans restaurant, and I am using the term “restaurant” loosely. Jazzy Wings has a couple of big benches and about three stools. Like a … Continue reading
Saucy’s BBQ* (#227, 10/11/12)
New Orleans has great food, but it’s not known for its barbecue. And it’s Chinese food kind of stinks too. Actually, Mexican isn’t very good either. But a new bbq joint opened up on Magazine Street so I made the … Continue reading
Baru (#226, 10/10/12)
I had avoided Baru for quite a long time because I have something against tapas places. Maybe because I have always hated sharing food. But I guess I’m coming around on that. For whatever reason, after a Wednesday in the … Continue reading
Root* (#225, 9/25/2012)
It was a long break, but made it to No. 214 in late September. Dropped in at Root (“modern American cuisine with old world flavors”) for a bit of a business lunch. I really like the place; it’s been getting … Continue reading
Sylvain (#224, 8/22/2012)
One of the great things about New Orleans is that you can go to 210 restaurants and then hit your 213th and it’s sensational and you wonder how you haven’t been yet. Sylvain is a cool, semi-hole-in-the-wall place right near … Continue reading
Brennan’s (#223, 8/22/2012)
This was a big decision for me – one of the most well-known restaurants in town and I ate there, but does it count? I only had breakfast here which always feels off to me. It seems like I should … Continue reading
Cosimo’s (#222, 8/15/2012)
This is a place I probably never would have gone if not for my Groupon addiction. But it’s not too bad. It’s in a shady neighborhood on Burgundy Street (pronounced bur-GUN-dee). I guess it’s a dive, though not as much … Continue reading
