Where I Go Out
Boiled crawfish
$$$, Seafood, St. Claude
"When crawfish are in season, there is nothing I crave more than a cold drink, a table with the day’s newspaper, eight pounds of steaming crawfish, and my girl. Nothing makes me happier."
New York strip
$$$$, Steakhouse, American, Seafood,
"Not only do they hit the right temperature, but the quality of the beef is top-notch and the sides add to the pageantry of the meal. My favorite accompaniment is their Maker’s Old Fashioned."
1/2 fried chicken
$$$, Southern, American, Italian, Seafood, Cajun / Creole, Bucktown
"Fresh, fried to order, and served with potato salad and a fish bowl of Abita Amber, it doesn't get any better than this!"
Housemade selection of pickled vegetables
$$$, Modern, Pub, American, Gastropub, Cocktail, New American, French Quarter
"Alex Harrell, who was once the former chef at Galatoire's Bistro in Baton Rouge, now mans the kitchen at this hip gastro pub in the French Quarter. His use of simple ingredients and good technique are a winning combination."
Parkway Surf & Turf poor boy
$$, Sandwiches, Bakery, Outdoor Seating, Full Bar, Happy Hour, Bar, Bayou St. John
"I order the Surf & Turf poor boy when I go to Parkway Tavern, and I always get it dressed. It doesn't get more authentically New Orleans than fried shrimp and roast beef smothered with gravy atop the freshest of French bread."
At My Venues
Goute
$$$, French, Cajun / Creole, Speakeasy, French Quarter
"I love it!! It represents NOLA History!!😎"
Soft shell crab
$$$, French, Cajun / Creole, Speakeasy, French Quarter
"Not one, but two large soft-shell crab drizzled with lemon-caper beurre blanc is just one of my favorite dishes from the Grand Dame of Creole cuisine. Start with a Sazerac and finish with the Café Brûlot."
