Go to Cafe Du Monde and get some coffee and beignets

ACME oyster bar on Iberville St, sit at the bar on the right when you walk in and get you a dozen raw shucked right in front of you, throw em on a cracker with some hot sauce and wash em down with a cold brew

Damn I miss that place....

Agree. On the beignets.

But.....if it is like it was when I was there years ago...... Half a block in any direction off Bourbon Street is a total dump. And a bit dangerous to and scary be around.

Are you still gonna let us know if there's any no- hitters through 4 innings ?

 

[REDEYE]

Did it last year myself.. Watch your back is all I can say.. maybe not drink as much as I did either..LOL

 

[ERockMoney]

Some ideas:

Have a po-boy at Johnny’s Po-Boys on St. Louis
Have gumbo, jambalaya and crawfish etouffee anywhere
Try the barbecue shrimp at Mister B’s Bistro on Royal
Drink a hurricane at Pat O’Brien’s
Walk around the garden and cemetery district
For an old school, classic dinner visit Arnaud’s on Bienville
Have a few beers anywhere with live music

Stanley for brunch. Eggs Benedict with fried oysters and fried soft shell crab. Great red beans and rice. Make sure you have a hand grenade. Charbroiled oysters at dragos. Best po boys and oysters are in the garden district at superior seafood.

Awesome video poker at Harrah's.

Breakfast at Mothers is always classic.

Its not. Half a block in any direction doesn't look much different.

Mothers is overrated and absolutely sucks these days.

AVOID.

Oceana grill is fantastic for lunch.

Get the crab cakes and a cup of seafood gumbo. Thank me later.

Dragos

Dragos

Another overrated joint.

New Orleans sounds interesting. Some food, some Jazz and maybe look for the treasure in " The Secret".
