Fat Hen Grill* (#173, 8/28/2011)
I hate to give this place a bad review; I just ordered a club sandwich and a salad to go, but it took forever and wasn’t that good. I’m thinking it needs a repeat visit to actually sit there and … Continue reading
Irish House* (#172, 8/23/2011)
It took me about three weeks after this place opened to get in and check it out. A cool place, definitely has the feel of an Irish pub (or what I imagine one to be like). Had some sort of … Continue reading
Company Burger (#171, 8/22/2011)
The latest (at the time) in a line of burger joints, I have to say, this is probably the best of the bunch. Good, juicy burger with outstanding bread (the key to any good burger). The sweet potato fries were … Continue reading
Jamila’s (#170, 8/20/2011)
The only Tunisian restaurant in New Orleans (supposedly, I believe most anything I read). I’m not really a big fan of Mediterranean food (or lamb), so wasn’t bowled over by this place, but my friends all liked everything a lot. … Continue reading
Zoe Bistro* (#169, 8/18/2011)
As I’ve said, always a struggle when I just have breakfast at a “real” restaurant, but I’ve decided to count them anyway. This is the restaurant at the W on Poydras Street. I had an omelet which was solid, but … Continue reading
Milk Bar (#168, 8/17/2011)
At a meeting, I was told about the “best sandwiches in NOLA” so I made my way up Prytania Street. I had been hearing about this place and obviously foolish for not going sooner. Outstanding high-end sandwiches for reasonable prices. … Continue reading
Tomasito’s* (#167, 8/16/2011)
Tomasito’s on Tchoupitoulas in the Warehouse District was…ok. The queso was bland, but my enchilada was decent. Shrimp tacos were also okay, quite spicy. Best thing was $2 white sangria – and the Pancho Villa posters in the bathroom. Overall, … Continue reading
Mat & Naddie’s* (#166, 8/11/2011)
An outstanding stop that has climbed into my top 10. I highly recommend it. Pretty stupid of me not to have been to a place that’s about 1/4 mile from my house. The spicy tempura fried gulf shrimp tonkatsu was … Continue reading
Velvet Cactus (#165, 8/4/2011)
The Velvet Cactus is probably my favorite Mexican place in town – that’s not saying much. Don’t come to NOLA looking for good Mexican. This is more up-scale than most of the Mexican restaurants here. The food was very good, … Continue reading
